Is this the correct ecm

[PaulRV6]

I got this ECM from rockauto and I want to be sure it is correct and will work. So far I am having trouble getting a spark at the plug. Put the plug against ground to check and zero spark. Then led me to think of the ECM. Unless I can't check the spark in this manner. Thanks

crank sensor will cause no spark and ignition module

yes, correct part # for ecm. it's the updated # from the factory 122-7148. It's the one I suggested you get.

Ok thanks Anthony. I didn't remember that but I did buy the one you suggested. Just trying to figure out why no spark unless I can't check it the way I thought.

I have never had a crank sensor fell and all my no start were cam sensor.

ok thanks. What about checking for spark by holding plug to ground? Is this still valid on this type ignition system? I am going to check crank sensor wiring since I remember reading something about the factory wiring diagram being wrong.

ECM has nothing to do with startup spark. Cam and Crank sensor both have to be functional to initiate a spark. Two fuses relative to the ignition should be checked.

Check the fuse to the ECM by the Battery, too. (Orange wire)

Ya never know with these cars...

Ok so I found out I have spark just no fuel. After cranking it for a while I checked 2 of the plugs and they were dry. I did a continuity check of the wiring to the injector terminals and all seemed good to those. I have what I think is a good ECM and a stock 87 chip w/o calpack chip. I guess I need to look over the wiring diagrams more.
