cranking but wont start
it is cranking over but its the biggest pain to get it started i have checked so much wiring replaced the battery im getting fuel... i guess all im trying to say could it be the ignition coil?
check your EGR valve. if its dirty or worn out it can cause rough idling and keep your car from starting altogether. my car(also a 99) did the same thing yesterday & my EGR ended up being the culprit. its the little sensor-like plugin thingy attached to the intake & a new one runs about 80-90 bucks at auto zone. you can take the top part apart & clean it & get a bit more life out of it but its best to just replace it. also, did you check your spark plugs?

have you tested for spark yet?

Primary coil resistance should be .45-.65 ohms whitch is the coil at the connection. lookes like this( - - -) center is B+ while right is 2-3 left is 1-4 coil. test secondary at the output tower top thou top, bottom thou bottom should be 11K ohms.
