97 xlt
97 xlt 4.0 - no start. No codes. a few weeks ago no start was diagnosed and repair was with new coil pack. started and ran for about a dozen uses. failed with no start again. Tested and found coil power at connector again and replaced coil pack again (bad part?). 2nd fix lasted for for two uses around town (short trips - multiple starts) and again no start after parked with no symptoms preceding. test shows voltage to coil pack again, but no spark. No codes during any of this. Any help?????
- Voltage at battery is good 12.4 (even after multiple cranking attempts).
- No symptoms preceding no start, just nothing after parking after use. (have had some idle surging, for a few months , but thought it may just be time for a tune up)??
- What test can I try for diagnosis ?
- What would be the correct voltage and tests for the coil connector ? (coil / connector sides) ???
 






appears to have been intermeittent crank sensor.

Will replace and update if the saga continues.
