Default 1987 2.2L carb: computer?

Hi,

We are trying to get our 1987 Caravan to start up, it cranks and gets power to the coil during crank but I don't see any spark. Tried to pull the codes but I am not getting any check engine light response, and I'm pretty sure the light is good.

The engine is 2.2L carbureted, does this even have an engine computer? Logic module power module etc. Appears to have a power module attached to the intake, but all references I find for the logic computer refer to fuel injection.

Thanks for any info!

Probably has a computer for O2 sensors n such and EGR. If its gettin power to the coil but no spark, the spark is not powerful enough for firing a plug enough to ignite the fuel.

My 87 pontiac had a computer, but it was fuel injected. Did you check all your fuses?
