mazsport coils problems !!? really need help

hi

I search a lot but didnt found exact answer for my problems

I have the mazsport coils kit in my car, but after change the engine it won't start, after checked batterie, compression, fuel pressure, etc I found that the spark plugs spark on the first try but don't respark for the others time

I put some brand news sparks but still not respark, now it doesnt seems to spark anytime I try

I looked on the web to find something to check the resistance or to check if my mazsport ignitor it's down or not but didnt find anything.

my leading and trailing it's well plug, the condensor it's unplug like mazsport want it to be, that kit did 2 summer before (+/-10K kms)
I did the ecc engine reset (20 hit on the brakes within 8 sec)
I do boost it with another car each time i tried to start it
I changed the sparks plugs cables...but nothing change
my fuse on the kit is OK



Is it my coils or not ?
how do i check my ignitor ?
Do we still can buy replacing stock from mazsport or not ?


really really need some help, I've put so many time on that swap march and I want to ride it this summer


thanks

My guess would be a bad ignitor box, we've seen quite a few cases of that over the years. (a local here went through 3 before one worked properly)

It's a Bosch (???) part so it can be purchased seperately of Mazsport which is good because they no longer exist (under that name)

Hopefully someone with more hands on experience with it can help you on how to trouble shoot the ignitor box.

try to change to stock coils, if it still doesn't start, then it's not your coils.
if it starts, then you wanna see the connection on the mazsport coils

The ignitor is a Microtech part....they are known to be poorly designed and fail easily if the ground gets corroded or of poor quality

....but have news problems now, it stalled at the idle and I saw that the front spark plug burn well but the back'ones are full of gasoline

I'll try to explain with my poor knowledges, when we plug the laptop on it, we saw that the fuel injectors don't follow the tps...I have to maintaint the gas accelerator on the idle...but when I try to press more on the acc, the injector don't react ???

somebody can tell me why ?

the maf and throtlle body are ok, the spark plugs are news, battery is full, all the coils and cable are been checked

I'm very confused

Go back to the stock ignition and tune, and then troubleshoot from there. Stalling could be many things.
