1987 Justy No Spark Headache.

[kirzick]

Hey all. I'm still trying to get the poor justy going. It has intermediate no spark and bogs and putters while driving and stalls alot. It shows ecu code 11.

 

So far I have replaced:

 

Spark plugs

Plug wires

Distributor cap and rotor

Pick up coil

Ignition coil

Fuel filter

 

I don't feel like it's a fuel issue,although I do hAve a carb rebuild kit. Any ideas? Thanks guys

according to the internet error code 11 is Ignition pulse system/crank angle sensor http://www.troublecodes.net/subaru/

 

does your justy have a crank angle sensor?

 

Otherwise there is still a fault in the Ignition pulse system

Thanks toonga. I will look for one when i get home. I thought that could be it, but i assumed since the car is carbed and older it wouldn't have one. But these motors are new to me.

Thanks!

This site doesn't have a crank sensor listed for the 87 justy.

Ive also looked around online and haven't found anything about a new one for sale.

Really sad this little car doesn't work, such a blast to drive.

 

Thanks

only other thing I can think of is the crank angle sensor which apparently is in the distributor.

 

Or it could need a carby rebuild.

Check the wires that go to the distributor.  Check the whole length between the disty and firewall.  They are known for cracked insulation that can lead to intermittent spark issues.
