I have a '92 Dodge van with a 318. It has always run like a scalded dog and starts instantly...'till Saturday. I got about two blocks from home and it seemed a little rough after sitting 5 days. I was out of town and it rained here all 5 days. First I replaced the pick-up in the distributorand WD-40'd the wires, then replaced wires+cap+rotor, then replaced plugs (Pt, 1 yr old). Fuel pressure is ok, spark plug laying on valve cover had blue spark. It just cranked! After replacing the coil on a whim, it fired right up. I'm confused as to why the coil appeared to function fine but wouldn't give me even 1 pop, even with either
