3B transplant - No Spark help

[Mihnea Cotet]

Have him check again the distributor alignment, also, FWIW a 3B has NO cam
sensor, only the hall sensor in the dizzy.
Did he hook up the ignition coil wires from the fusebox? This may be a
little tricky for some, a friend of mine who did a similar transplant in a
90q20v had the same problem because he forgot to hook up the black wires
from the fusebox to the coil...

HTH,

Mihnea
