Mazda Repair: 1989 Mazda 929 Ignition problem, 1989 mazda 929, mazda 929


Question
We have no fire to the ignition system.  What do we need to check first and where is it located in the engine compartment.  We installed a new battery and lost ingition.  The car will crank but will not start.  We pulled a plug and we have no fire.  

Answer
Hi Joe,
The most likely problem would be a blown fusable link. This causes no spark and can sometimes occur after a battery change. If this is not the problem however, the first things to check after that would be the coil and the igniter in the distributor.
hope this helps
