Well, did my best, no dice. Guess I'll ask here anyway. My van started idling rough and dying a couple of months ago right after fixing the a/c compressor and recharging the system. I barely made it home that day, hasn't run since. I've tried two different ECUs, replaced the hall sender, distibutor cap, checked the rotor, replaced the fuel pump, checked and rechecked the coil (replaced a few months ago along with spark plugs and wires), and all I get is a yellowish weak spark, and a weak battery that I've recharged a couple of times after so many tries. The grounds were inspected and cleaned not long ago, the AFM is new, as is the O² sensor and coolant sensor. Any thoughts?
