Hi I bought a 1984 ford Ltd from a kid for 25 bux heh mint condition almost but the kid didnt know anything about cars and couldnt get it to start.

The engine turns over but I get no spark anywhere at all. I replaced the starter, coil, ignition module TFI, and still no spark. I dont understand why it would be doing this. And how would I go about to fix this issue? I need to be able to drive the car asap.

Any thoughts or ideas?

Again it turns the engine over and all but it doesnt fire up, no sparks at all from any of plug wires. But all the parts like the starter, coil, and tfi module are brand new parts. So please help me?

have you tested the battery or is the fuel tank empty by chance? there a couple of other things, also try pumping pedal 3 times and then try to start, if that doesn't work, wait a couple of min. then just put your foot down all the way down for maybe 5 seconds and see if she cranks, hope this helps

If you are getting no spark its electrical and you might have an ecm problem (computer) .It is usally in behind the glove box door.Remove it and try your local scrap yard for a replacement .The car is fairly old and you should get one no problem around 50.00$ or so .Make sure you match up the code numbers on the front of the ecm. and you might even be able to get the old tested first at your local parts store possibly depending on where you are . Let me know how you make out good luck.
