7mge-No fire on start up?

or your cap/rotor is in poor shape. check for spark from the coil wire. if you have that when you crank, but no fire from the individual spark plugs, then your dizzy may have taken a crap. have had this happen alot on cars. check for spark (not just power) at both points (coil and plugs) then get back to us.

also, to get a pulsating signal from the coil, you need a very good multimeter, and i believe it has to be analog, not digital.
