ok so ive never been more confused or frustrated. Seriously. Today i bought a new coil, installed it, and with a spark plug out, and the car hooked up to jumper cables, tada, she started. So i shut the car off, put the plug in, and tried starting it again. No spark. WTF!!!!!! Nothing changed between having spark and not having spark. So naturally i took the plug out again, and sure enough, no spark. What in gods name is going on here? Is it possible at all that the computer doesnt match up with the new jdm engine? woulld that cause a "sometimes spark"? Please help guys, im getting really fed up with this car.
