Hey, I have a 86 fiero that with the v6. It sat all winter and I started a week ago and sent to drive it. I made it a block down the road and it died. It's not getting spark. Any clue what it could be. It has a new distributor, wires and plugs. Could the fact that it sat for 4 months in the cold and snow messed with the timing since it wasn't started?
 
Spark and timing are not the same thing. Cold and snow do not effect timing. How did you determine you have no spark?
 
I pulled a plug wire off and I Have a tester that lights up if there Is spark. I put it onto the distributor cap and connected the other end to the wire. I had my friend crank the car while I watched for the light. It never lit up

I'm thinking the most likely culprit is the ignition coil. Any thoughts on that?
