Help! No spark from coilpack V5 STI
Hi all, first post as I have an issue with the beastie that I cant figure out.
Getting no spark from my coilpack. Had her out 2 weeks ago after 3 years off the road doing a body resto and upgrading suspension etc. Was bucking/miss firing under heavy acceleration. Ticking over fine at idle and revving clear. Initially thought it was fuel related so purchased a 340lph pump. Last weekend fitted a new blower motor. Started her to check blower working and she was running lumpy but thought it was just cause she hadn't been started in a week. Turned off and fitted new pump. Started back up, still lumpy and wouldn't clear! While running pulled off h/t lead 1, no difference, reconnected then pulled lead 2, no difference, pulled 3 she died, reconnected and pulled 4, she died. Plugs look fine, not wet though. Left her for abit came back out fired up perfect, ran on 4 for 5minutes then back onto 2!!! Tonite went back out and she wont fire at all!! Tried connecting my old timing light to each of the outlets on the coilpack and nothing. At my wits end was running perfect. Dont want to rush out and buy a new coilpack as usual with STI tax there the dearest ones out there at 180gbp!! Please help!!! Shes a MY99 WRX STI JDM

Not logged any faults, which I thought was abit wierd. Have tried mate! Either earlier gc8s with a different coilpack or wont sell the coilpack as going with the engine think it was only fitted 99 and 2000
