So my Capri XR2 has been kinda fussy lately. On occation it just wont start. Cranks normally just wont start... I'm at a loss of what to do right now... I noticed that the problem was intermittent and started around 7-10 days ago and have diagnosed it as a no spark condition. Here's the rub... I initially thought the car was suffering from the infamous ignition module so to confirm it I swapped distributors with my step dads XR2.... to no avail.
There is power at the ignitor (12.5v) and the problem is intermittent. I pulled the loom looking for a break as when you wiggled it around it would start no problem... After taking the harness loose, removing the loom, and tracing the wires I didn't see any pinched or proken wires. I did however find a green wire that has an exterior wire layer that is similar to coax one end meets up with a black and yellow wire and the other has nothing on it just taped up.
Also I noticed that my CEL is recently inop. Tomorrow I'm gonna check if the bulb is blown or possible related to my cars issue. Any ideas?
