Couple of weeks ago, I posted my problems with a 1990 Coupe Q and the
inability to start the car which seemed to be dependent on the temperature
or whatever.
Checked out the starter and replaced the battery but no change..... the
Coupe continued to start or not, without reason. When the car wouldn't
start, there was no spark. Finally decided to check the ignition sensors
and their cables from the flywheel back to the connector which goes back to
the coil. Turns out one of the wires in the cable to the lower sensor was
nicked and half-broken accounting for the erratic starts.
Thanks
John.....
