Asked by Gabriel Jul 22, 2018 at 11:48 AM about the Dodge D-Series

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 1986 Dodge D150 with A318. The engine turns but
will not start. I've replaced the coil, coil wire column to
shebeener cap, and distributor rotor. I've used a test light
and can see that I have fire going to the distributor cap
from the coil, but no fire coming from the cap to the plugs.
I've checked the pick up plate with an ohm reader, and the
resistance is good.  

HALP!

I was using talk to text, let me clarify, Replaced coil, distributor cap, coil wire, and rotor. I've checked the pickup plate and its reading a solid resistance. Test light shows fire from cook to cap, but no fire from cap to plugs
