Basically what happened was I was on the way to grab groceries and the car stalled out. I shook the wiring around a bit and it started right up. Tied it off with a coat hanger temporarily. I cut open the harness and took a look. Nothing looked abnormal. Re wrapped it back up and took it for a test drive for 15 minutes with no issues at all. Put it in reverse and back into the driveway. 1/2 way up the driveway I stall out. I try to dump the clutch and it wouldn't catch and run. So I just ripped the e-brake. Won't start at all now.


So I pulled the codes not to long ago. Getting 13,21,34



I have checked over the harness for faulty ground wiring and disconnected spliced wiring. It looks good for the most part besides the knock sensor pigtail wires showing a little.


Tested 2 different coils, checked the ecu for any burned out capacitors. Cut back the battery terminal wiring for a fresh connection. I have also replaced the distributor cap and rotor.


Someone mentioned a bad distributor not relaying a signal to the coil to spark.


I also believe it might be the power transistor. Is there anyway to check either of these without replacing them ? I don't have an ohm meter either to test voltage. So idk what could work.


Any other suggestions ?
