coil packs every where. Well I went and bought rose coil packs that are every where and the 4 pack not only had the wrong firing order in the wrong place, the plug wires wouldn't reach the pack. Now I could have used wires from when i changed thw plug s earlier. Ut why when the part was the wro g 9ne to begin with. Thats all right with me. A little more research yielded better results at rockauto.com. real orginal parts. Yhabks for your knowledge

First, verify the problem. Check at least two cylinders on each module. (and not on the same coil.) If you have no spark at all, crank sensor would be my first guess.

Went and did the crank sensor man that was hard to get to. went to the cam sensor. checked for spark still none I think it might be my ecm. Checked for power to the nippon next to the battery power there and no power coming out of the ecm. I want to thank you all for your help I wouldnt been able to trouble shoot with out ya. Ill be back for sure when I start the major rebuild of this engine. to factory or my customized specs.
