    My brother in law has a 93 Toyota pick up that is not getting any spark to crank it over. It has 180000 miles on it and has survived 25 years of Ohio winters. He said it needs a 208 spark igniter. The truck has a 2.4 4cylinder 22RE engine.
    Can anyone suggest the best option for replacing this unit that wont cost an arm or leg?
    He has seen prices from $375 to $900 and to be honest this truck is running on borrowed time and he is even questioning putting that much into it.
    Does anybody have a spark igniter they would sell or know where he can find one that is more realistically priced?
    Thank You

    There is not many around still running or in the yards in my area.
    We have someone looking for us in that direction and have had no luck so far.
    Im a member of Tacoma World and told him I would give this a shot.

    I'd check ebay since it's small it'd be easy to ship
