hey guys,

sprayed TB cleaner in the TB and now the car wont start

had the car running while spraying it but i then turned the car off to spray it in the vacuum valve of the CAI arm.

long story short, started the car and the intake coughed and smoked

i dried out the pod and left the car for a bit but now it wont start

it still cranks but taking out the sparks and trying to fire them doesnt show any sparking

what could possibly be the problem?

So basically you sprayed too much and blogged the motor and then you kept on cranking the motor for it to turn over with the t/b cleaner still in motor and killed the coil

would it most likely be the coil and not other things like the ICM?

EDIT: could fouled plugs be an issue for not igniting outside of the car?

the plugs show obvious signs of fouling from running rich but i would assume they would still spark?

test it and see which one needs replacing
