ignition module poblems!!!!!

[chiquete]

this Monday at night my car did not start, the starter is running but no current in the sparkplugs;, i check the current in the coil and in the ignition module, both have current in the 2 wires when the key is open, the problem is that there is no spark in the cover of the distributor. I bought a new coil yesterday but it did not start; I am almost convinced that it is the ignition module, this morning I bought one in a local autoparts store; tonight I will prove after work.. somebody has some commentary on the matter.

Chiquete, I'm posting the type of Z you've got (I checked your profile) so that others will be able to chime in quicker and easier.

Everyone-Lou has a 240Z 6/74

that is right, it is a 74 240z whit a 1981 280zx distributor(the module is in the dist body)....it is normal that the two wires on the coil have current( positive and negative post)???

6/74? 74 240Z? Wouldn't that be a 260Z?
