So I am looking to pick up a Laser for really good price with a lot of new parts. NEw gaskets, head was redecked, 18g turbo, new wiring harness.

The problem is that the car sat for about a month and now it's not getting any spark?

I am having the guy run a compassion test on the car. Any ideals what it can be?

It fires off a coil pack,no dist. You could bring another coil pack and see what that does.

Power transistor, cam angle sensor, ecm coolant temp sensor.

Those plus coils and ECU.

I have spares of each of those if you need to check things out...

How cheap is cheap?

What year is the car, and what year is the wiring harness, i think there are a few small differences between a 90 and a 91+.

Why did it need a new wiring harness?

Thinking of it. I had a few of these in the shop and the wiring harnesses going to the relays located behind the LF strut tower have a tendency to rott

Yeah. I fell off the toilet and figured out a way to make them better.
