I connected the coil wire to the coil and held it next to metal, and there was no spark. Should i try leaving it connected to the opti only, and see if there's spark between it and the block? I also jumped it and the battery was fine so i ruled that out. And what were you talking about with the wire routing? from the opti to the pcm? or coil? or just in general?
