Asked by BigcrazyMike54 Nov 24, 2015 at 09:44 AM about the 1972 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

No spark.
Pulled #1 plug and held the wire against a good ground and nothing.
Pulled the coil wire and did the same, no spark.
got a different wire and tried, still no spark.
Figured the coil was bad so I replaced it and STILL no spark.
Hot wired the coil (thus by passing the ignis switch) and STILL no spark.
Checked the compression and all cyl are 110psi except 2 cyl are at 85 and 90 psi. It still should have enough compression to start, but still no spark.

Any idea's?
