Fuse Location or Other Help

Posted by bernien46

Well I got the starter in and the engine started but I caused another problem. I also wanted to change the starter switch and didn't disconnect the battery cable and I hit the wrench against another metal item and I caused an arc for a second and when I was done I tried to start the engine and now it will not start. It turn over great but it seems like I have no spark. Is there a fuse someplace that I may have blown or do you know of something else I should look for. Like maybe did I burn the key switch out when it arced. I don't want to start disconnecting thing that don't need to be touched. Can you tell me the location of the fuses
Thanks for any help or ideas.

The only fuses on a stock TD are the two on the fire wall. That said, many will add fuses for some real protection and lord only knows if that has been done to your car in the past. I'd suggest you break out the test light and start checking for juice to the coil (white wire if the loom hasn't been altered) and work your way back to the ignition switch and finally the lead from the ignition switch to the starter switch terminal.
