Do you mean you pulled out coil from cyl 1 and put a old plug in it, and earthed the plug somewhere on the car and cranked it, and the coil is firing the spark plug okay?

If thats the case, then maybe its your injectors? check all your injectors are getting power to each plug. If its got spark and its not firing, then it probably doesnt have fuel. Maybe your injectors are completely buggered, or maybe they are dirty.

Did it just "happen" one day, or have you done something to your car and now its not working?

means its sparking but not firering the spark plugs are fine
All it tells you is that #1 coil is working.

Have you checked the spark plugs in 1,3,5 cylinders? Have you checked that the injectors are working - maybe they need a good clean?

what happened was i spun out round a corner when i started it again it was running on 3 cyclinders and wouldbt boost was blowing heaps of white smoke it all so burnt my boost line from my waste gate to the turbo where u put ur boost controller so it was ventin to the air thought it was a blowen head gaskit but since then have conpressen tested the motor seems to be fine hasnt used any coolant at all and the oil is fine looks brand new still

yeah i pulled out the coil pack from cyclinder 1 put a old plug in it to see if it was sparking its sparking fine so its not a sparking issue im yet to get a led test light to check the injector pulse. all so have swapped my inighter pack over and swaped my ecu with another car that was working fine did nothing different so cant be that

Doesnt mean they arent fouled.

You can check everything else on the car but with out pulling the plugs there isnt much point.

But If you dont think its your plugs, Id start checking the Diff and the handbrake cable, cause that will fix the problem.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
