Default Re: No spark to plugs

no snap heard.
I removed the ground cable from the battery. Now I test for continuity between the ground cable and the positive battery terminal

My starter works fine.

Your not checking for continuity, you need to be checking to see IF there is "voltage" flowing from the battery to ground. Even if you have an open ground, everything will still work as it should Frank. IF you get a reading on your multi meter from the ground cable to the post then something some where is grounding.
