Analysis Tool for near free.

Several posts in recent days have been directed to non-start, non-run, quit problems.

Here is a neat tool that works every time.
Materials needed:
About 7 feet of 22 gage stranded insulated door bell wire (single, not two conductor)
A neon mini lamp # NE-2 (available in electronics stores, possibly even Radio Shack, or on the internet) they are very cheap.
A medium sized alligator clip.
A good copper core coil wire that is long enough for all of your vehicles (that have coil wires).

Wrap 15 turns of the bell wire around the coil wire (use tight turns next to each other). Leave only one end free, about 5 feet long. Tape the wraps to the coil wire with black vinyl electrical tape. Next take the free end of the bell wire and solder it to one terminal wire of the NE-2. attach the other 2' of bell wire to the other terminal wire of the NE-2.
Put the alligator clip on the free end of that 2' wire.

USE:

Replace the normal coil wire with the wound wire.
Attach the alligator clip to a ground. run the engine. If there is spark the NE2 will flash continuously. if none it won't
