No spark on my XJ
hey guys...update on the Jeep
i replaces the valve cover gasket, RMS, tie rods stabilizer and drag link, radiator, and battery cables.
Put everything back electrically as best I could, and at moment of start up...no spark.
lots of forums say it’s the CPS or the ignition coil...I replaced the ignition coil, but still didn’t start up.
still researching but I don’t have any solid answers...any ideas? Thanks

The crank position sensor is very common on these to fail. I had that happen to mine.
Then it it happened again the next year, but that time it was the cam position sensor under the distributor cap. The distributor was worn so it chewed up the inside of the cap and cam position sensor.
