ramitin2:
I have been "called out" on this test before, but I am pretty sure it is vald. Does your tach indicate 250-400 rpm while cranking? If not, that can be a sign of a bad CKPS. That the crank sensor on the front of the engine. On the other hand, I would not expect the fuel injectors to fire if there was no CKPS signal.
So, then either you are probably getting no ignition OR you have a badly leaking fuel injector. I bet on the lack of spark.
