A bad module can fry a coil pack. It's best to replace both at the same time or purchase the testing tool from Casper's Electronics. It could be a number of things. It's best to find a local turbo Regal buddy who can help you chase the issue down.

Could be cam or crank sensor problem.

Pull the cam sensor cap and check the wheel. The tab that keys it to the shaft is known to break.

Is there a process for getting codes without a scanner?

 

[TurboBuRick]

There is but I doubt there are any codes.

80's tech often requires a 'visible scanner', lol.

Just a flashback memory of when I acquired a carb'd '79 Mazda GLC as simple transport. The gas was so crappy back then that when it would not start I could remove, clean the filter and replace in 15 minutes, the good old days of 'shade tree'.

Sorry I digress when given the chance, not a flaw just endearing.

You can disagree all you want. A scanner will not help in this situation.

I was not disagreeing just learning.

I can see the cam or crank sensor being the issue. Apparently there is still spark, fuel, air and then it get's all fubar.

No trees were harmed in the sending of this message, however, a significant number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.

if there check engine light isn't on, there won't be a code. If you do have a code, you can get it with a paperclip in the ALDL port.


Since you're flying blind without any kind of scan tool I'm going to go ahead and assUme the worst.

I'll put a penny on the crank sensor

No fuel, bad maff, bad o2,

 

[TURBOTIMMER]

I'm with turboburick. Pull the cam sensor cap and see if the anodized cup spins. It shouldn't. I've had 2 break the tiny tab right off.

No fuel, bad maff, bad o2,

The o2 isn't used for starting the engine.

 

[Sir. Ansalot]

ok i pulled the cam sen. cap the tabs were good so i replaced the ignition module still no luck

[TurboBuRick]

What does it do if you try to start it?

 

[crashedout1]

Crank sensor rubbing maybe loose bracket causing it to try to fire in one spot
