Re: Testing coils on a coil over plug system?
Art, I'll assume the cam sync lite blinks now? Do you mean it still doesn't start, or it starts and stalls when put into gear? I'd say if the coil is capable of jumping at 40,000 volts it's sufficient. So we're back to the basics, Air, Fuel, Spark. Perhaps we could try this test, hook your meter to the wires crank sensor wires @ the ECU, assuming the engine starts, set to AC voltage and start engine if possible raise RPM, the voltage should increase with rpm. The .4 volts AC seems pretty low to me however I'm sure different sensors can produce varying amounts of voltage. IF in fact the engine does start now you must have at least some trigger input to the ECU.By the way what supply voltage did you decide on for the cam sync? Also how much timing do you have ?
