Turns over, No spark
Ok I drove my 95 country HO 4.0 home last night. Would not start today, turns over fine. I have fuel, no spark. No spark at plugs or coil. I checked all fuses and swapped relays, no spark. I just installed the sensor in the distributor, think it is called coil pick up or cam sensor. No spark, whats next?

I got my xj for an awesome price because after driving it for a bit it would not restart until it sat for 1 to 1-1/2 hours (no spark).
It was the crank sensor.
It was the crank sensor.

On my 95 it was under the rotor in the distributor. Just pulled off the rotor, umplugged the wires and it came right out.
