Everything was running fine. I had the Jeep running. Jumped in and put it in gear and it shut off and now it will not start. No spark. It turns over but nothing. So I tried to pull start it and still no spark.

See if you have 12 volts to the positive side of the coil with the key on!

Cheap digital voltmeter available at Harbor Freight for about $5.00.

I'll stay with you as long as you keep responding.

I'll help all I can. I know CJs well.

See picture below.
