    Need some help troubleshooting my 2008 Rubicon

    The evap code might be gas cap. If u fuel up with it running it may throw the code . I have an 07 and now turn it off before fueling up for that reason. I had that code about 50 times and always was a loose cap or running when I got fuel . The random misfire is probably plugs , wires , coul...

    No spark from new coil #3 but fine on #6

    Vman should change his name to THEEman. I tested everything humanly possible and it all checked ok so I put the new coil in with new wires and plugs and all is good so far. Idle and test drive a success. Thank you for the diagrams and me being able to bounce things off of a knowledgeable...

    No spark from new coil #3 but fine on #6

    Another thing is I ohmed all 3 coil packs primary and secondary circuts and they all were very close in readings. Nothing was far off other than not getting spark from the old one and the first new one after an hour. Primary was .6 to .7 ohms and secondary was like 11.7k to 12.1k on all posts on...

    No spark from new coil #3 but fine on #6

    Ah ha ! When I tested the old coil and had no spark from #3 I replaced the coil and it worked for an hour then same no spark. I THEN replaced the wire and plug ! I have since gotten a new coil again but I'm afraid to put it in and have the same issue. I forsee a problem trying to return another...

    I ohmed c2 pin 7 to coil connection and it was ok, had 0 resistance. Anyone know how the pcm is grounded ? I found 1 ground from the case to fender , is that it ?

    No spark from new coil #3 but fine on #6

    The shop doesn't have an opening before next Friday so more testing to be done. I only had a few mins to check things today before dark and this may make me stupid but where is c2 on the pcm ? Is it the second connector from the left ? It was getting dark so I couldn't see anything labeled c2. I...

    No spark from new coil #3 but fine on #6

    Thank you again vman. I did not check pcm side because #6 has spark but I will tomorrow . Can't hurt at this point. Last ditch effort before it goes to the shop

    No spark from new coil #3 but fine on #6

    Anyone know what voltage the coil input wire should be getting ? I read somewhere 10 to 12 and I have 10.8 but then I saw 11.45 and up.

    No spark from new coil #3 but fine on #6

    Vman thanks for the diagrams. Your a God... in my previous posts I mentioned that the new coil worked for an hour or so then #3 went out again. Also I connected a plug directly to the coil terminal and no power..I used a piece of hose and grounded the plug. Checked on all other terminals with...

    No spark from new coil #3 but fine on #6

    It's called wasted spark ignition or something. Paired cylinders fire at the same time. Now do u see why it's confusing ? All my research leads to 2 paired cylinders not firing not just 1. So in theory from research is if 1 fires the other should to and if 1 doesn't fire neither should the...

    No spark from new coil #3 but fine on #6

    I put a new on . Also took the other 5 new wires and hooked them up to #3 coil post and grounded the plug. No spark with any wire on #3. All others have spark with same wire and same plug

    No spark from new coil #3 but fine on #6

    I eliminated the wire and plug by putting a known good plug directly on the coil and no spark only at 3 same plug fires on all other coil posts

    No spark from new coil #3 but fine on #6

    Yes no spark from 3 on old coil so I replaced it. It was fine for about an hour then same thing happened. Cel started blinking and threw same code p0303 so I checked for spark again and nothing. I used the same plug and checked every post for spark and all were good except 3. I checked for...

    No spark from new coil #3 but fine on #6

    I bought the jeep used about 4 years ago. It ran without a hitch til this nonsense. I don't think the coil that was in there was stock so I got one from napa . It's an eichlen branded coil. From what I've researched it doesn't make sense as to why 3 isn't providing spark and 6 is. It's the same...

    No spark from new coil #3 but fine on #6

    I checked connections and the pins are OK. I eliminated the plug wire by using a piece of hose and a spark plug directly from the coil. All posts provide spark except number 3. If 3 and 6 fire at the same time and 3 doesn't provide any spark why does 6 fire ? If 3 was burnt wouldn't 6 also not...
