Where would the fuse be the one for the glove box? They are small ones and I do not have the owners manual.

Check fuse 8 for pcm if no spark. Then scan for codes use a paper clip between A and B on scanner plug in below dash under steering wheel. Check pick up coil in distributor see picture must be between 500-1500 ohms. Get codes via flashes on dash check engine series of three. It can be 2 then 1 or 3 then 4 then go to our site here under repair and look for codes for OBD1 pic it will come in next email.

Hi John,

Here is a link to an article that features written step by step instructions and pictures explaining how to do the scan yourself, also I have included a link to our YouTube channel with a how to video on code scanning. Most scanners are inexpensive to purchase, you can purchase one online from sites like Amazon.com. Once you have the codes please get back to us so that we can further assist you. We are always happy to help.
