Another trick to check spark is to stick a screwdriver into a plug boot and hold it close to a metal (unpainted) area on the engine while someone cranks the engine. Don't get shocked! Also, there should be a coil that goes to the distributor. Make sure it is good. Sometimes the wiring inside will burn up. A 16 yo car could use a new cap. rotor, plug wires, fuel filter, and some TLC. www.alldatadiy.com is an excellent source of info.</blockquote>
