URGENT! Car has no sparks

Rajab · #1 (**permalink**) 07-16-2008, 10:01 PM

I have a 92 Jetta 1.8 gas engine. Engine turns over but won't start. I have spartks from the center spark plug wire, but not from the other four wires. I have read that it could be the crankshaft sensor, if so where is it located? Are there any other suggestions, they'd be appreciated. Thx.

Check the distributor cap and rotor first.

Thanks for your your input. I replaced the distributor cap and roter. Also, I replaced the coil aswell. Still no sparks.

If you changed the coil and cap and rotor, prob would be good idea to replace the ancient spark plug wires too. Also clean all your ground wires and check or replace your spark plugs. Torque them to 20 foot pounds.
