    Hi Guys

    Whilst cleaning my ignition system on my Hyundai Coupe 20 I accidently got
    some contact spray into one of the holes in the coil for th HT lead.
    forgot about it and turned the car and now no spark. Do you guys reckon
    that its just the coild thats gone or something more sinister?

    You were cleaning your ignition system?? Pull the wires and dry it out
    before doing anything else.

    If you don't have any spark, the car will never "try to start". You should
    probably take it to a mechanic.

    You should check things like whether the check engine lamp illuminates when
    the key is on (as a check for computer operation) and the crank sensor is
    functioning.

    Since you say you have new plugs, wires, and manifold, was there anything
    you did that may have affected spark?
