Ford TempoThe Ford Tempo is an American-built two-door coupe and four-door sedan produced by the Ford Company from 1984 to 1994. It was the successor to the Ford Fairmont, and was replaced in 1994 by the Ford Contour. The Tempo was part of a rejuvenation by Ford to offer more environmentally friendly, fuel efficient, and more modern styled models to compete with the imports.
Replaced Harmonic balancer now 93 tempo will not start
After a lot of prying and other stuff I got the harmonic balancer replaced on my 93 tempo but now the darn thing will not start. I drove it up onto the ramps with no problems at all.
It seems to be getting spark and fuel although I do not have a pressure tester. The engine was not turned at all during the replacement of the balancer nor was the distributor. I did unplug the ignition module in order to help gain access to the oil filter(did oil change while it was on the ramps LOL).
I have read the other post in this forum and concluded it should be either the fuel pump pressure which can be tested with a tester which I will have to try and get my hands on or it could be the ignition module that is connected to the distributor.
Question being is there a way to test the ignition module without having to replace which cost a good C note..
Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated
