[s-cars] No Start 94S4

[Robert Myers]

Your problem could well be a bad coil shorting it's primary to 
ground.  This will pop that fuse almost instantly.  Pull your coil 
pack and look for anything unusual.  It may well be visibly 
obvious.  If not try pulling the white power connectors and measuring 
the resistance across the coils from connector pin to ground (or the 
aluminum cover).  This value should be high in a normal coil but if 
one is shorted out then the resistance will be low.
