Engine will not start.

TDC and RPM sensors
There are three connectors on a bracket on the firewall side on the intake manifold. Two of the connectors are rectanglar, and they are the TDC and RPM cables. The round one is the O2 sensor cable.

You have no secondary readings from your coil? You may have found your problem or one of them. Take your coil and your meter down to the parts dealer, measure them. Or, take it to your friend's place and measure the two. Also check coil to ground, should be open, no reading. Good luck.

I removed the coil from the car, and cleaned terminal 4. According to the Haynes manuel this terminal is supposed to be covered with a rubber plug, mine was not and filled with gunk. After cleaning I remeasured and obtained a reading of 0.2 ohms, between terminals 1 and 4, far less than the spec, which I think indicates a short.

It sounds like you may have found your problem but also,,a few months back, there was a similiar situation, wouldn't start, tried everything and finally it was traced to a missing rubber grommet, where the DME wires went throught the firewall; one of the wires had worn its shielding off and was grounding against the metal. Just something else to check if the coil fix fails.
