Default Re: After winter time no start

Two sure tests :
1. for the spark, hold the metal part of a screwdriver and poke it into a coil pack while standing on a wet concrete floor. If nothing happens, you have no spark, otherwise you have spark, have someone dial 911.
2. for the fuel, remove the cap from the test port on the fuel rail and have someone try to start the car while you push in the Schrader valve and observe with a lighted BIC lighter. If you and the car survive, there is no fuel delivery, otherwise the problem will be solved anyway by buying a new car.

ONLY KIDDING !!! DO NOT ATTEMPT EITHER (1) OR (2), BUT YOU SHOULD GET THE IDEA !!!!!!!
