302 no fire
Well, my problems have gotten worse from my last post: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/6...-on-302-a.html Now, I have zero fire. I pulled a spark plug, and well, there was no spark. I put a different map sensor, coil, and distrubitor on it and it still won't fire. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Did you pull the plug or the plug wire? Try taking just the plug wire and holding it near
a area of the engine that is grounded, you should see a spark if you are close to ground. Might want to use rubber handled pliers to hold the wire or you might get a shock.

I pulled the wire once and grounded it, and it didn't spark. Just to double make sure that I had no fire, I put an old spark plug that I had lying around and grounded it on the block, and there was still no fire. So, any suggestions to why I have no fire?
