It turns over, but there is no spark. I did some "cramming" before my trip down, and here is what I came up with:
Grounds look good. We took them off, cleaned them, and then fastened them back.
The ground on top of the rotor housing ( I read it goes to the computer) looks good, I ohmed it out, and it was a dead short from the ground inputs of the computer to ground.
It appears I get a signal from the Crank sensor, but this was watching a digital meter, which may not be the ideal method, but the only one I had with me.
Wires going from coils / ignitors to the computer checked out good.
That's the Readers Digest condensed version, I have yet to write up details I found in a proper location.
This is a 1986 non turbo. The body is is real good shape, interior is OK, but some plastic needs replacing, so I'm not sure about how available those parts are, and I can't determine anything about the engine until I can at least get spark to get it running.
