    You have a coil pack on it or an ol school distributor? That would be the next place to go as far as getting spark. Unless like you said in the beginning that you think the ecu is bad.

    bummer. I would just look around online then see if other people have had this problem too. Might just be some bad coil packs.

    wow. that does suck. That is a good one. Sounds like some kinda electrical monster. :confused: Could very well be the ecu like you said before. See if you can have the computer tested.

    You have a 4 cylinder auto 4x4? They didn't make those IIRC. It should be a stick.

    -Resistance of coil wire should 25k Ω (each wire)
    - Sprak plug gap is .8mm (.031 ")
    - Primary coil resistance should be: cold .36-.55 hot .45-.65
    - Secondary coil resistance should be: cold 9.0-15.4k hot 11.4-18.1k
    - Distributor air gap should be .02-.04 mm (.008 -.016 ")
    - Generator Pick up coil resistannce should be cold 185-275 hot 240-325

    Yes, that is most likely your issue. It's spins relatively quick and any missing section is going to cause the ECU to not be able to calculate the necessary data for injection. Test this on your dads by disconnect his and see if it fires.
