Hello,

If you do not have spark to any of the plugs then the first item needs to be checked is the ignition coil pack.
If you have a faulty coil pack it will not provide spark to the plugs.
An ignition coil can go bad over time due to heat and vibration, it can have excessive internal resistance and stop working.

First check to see if you are getting power to the coil pack. If you have power but no output then it is likely a faulty coil pack.

Another possibility is a faulty ignition control module. That module can be tested. Just take it to your local auto parts store and they should have the equipment to test the module.

I have attached the diagrams for your reference.

Please let me know of any questions.

Thank you.
