Discussion:
No Spark

I have a FGC15 Mitsubishi with a 4G33 engine. We replaced the timing belt and couldn't get any spark. So I replaced the cap, rotor, coil plug wires all the plugs and still no spark. I finally replaced the ignition switch thinking that would help still nothing. Next I replaced the ignition module in the distributor and still nothing.

Finally I bought a whole new distributor with points and condenser
and it still has no spark. I replaced the fuel hoses and vacuum hose and fuel filter to make sure it was getting fuel in case it was some kind of pressure problem. This is a propane model forklift.

It's been down for 2 months and I need get it fixed any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

check and see if this unit has a reulctor wheel and pickup sensor on the crank pulley. If so check the harness and make sure the wiring is intact.
I have seen some of these engines that have this with this same issue because the wiring to the pickup sensor gets damaged or the reluctor wheel is damaged and causing the sensor to not pick up properly.
