Ok, just to give a little background in case it's relevant. Bought the car last Saturday, got it for pretty cheap from a used dealer because it needed, what I thought was only going to be, a little work. I fixed the exhaust leak between the cat and muffler. Turbo wouldn't spool because the wastegate was seized, forced that open and it worked great. Even before the repairs the car was running awesome, just got more fun after I fixed the turbo. Parked the car last night and it wouldn't start this morning. So far I have:
Made sure its getting fuel - yes
Tested DIC to see if its getting spark - NOTHING, tested each coil on the cassette individually with a spark tester and then again with an NGK plug just in case the tester died
Finding a new DIC locally to test with doesn't seem to be an easy task(at least not in Western Ma). Is there anything else, ie cheaper or easier, that I can test/replace before spending $300+ ordering a new DIC?
