Well, the first time it wouldnt start I replaced the cps. It ran fine for a day or 2. Then I was on my way to work one day and it died going down the road about 55mph. It coasted about 30yrds and fired back up on its own. I drove a couple more miles and it died again. I pulled over and waited about 10 mins, then it fired back up. So I made it to work. Then at lunch time it wouldnt start. So I changed the pickup coil. It ran fine for a day. Then wouldnt start again. I have put on a new coil and icm. Im not getting any spark from the coil. I dont have a meter so I just used a test light on the pwr to the icm. There is pwr when I crank it over(at the yellow wire) The ground is good. The green wire showed no pwr when cranking. The ground at the block is also good.
