    We have a BIG problem with our race car. We can't get it running. We =
don't get sparks. When we take four plugs (4 cyl Cosworth engine) out of =
the engine and put them on top of the camshaft cover and start the =
engine we can see sparks on all of the four plugs. But if put four =
replacement plugs into engine, and leave the four originals on top of =
the cam cover, and start the engine we can not see any sparks. ??????? =
WHY ???????
   =20
    Did you use some thread anti-sieze, and used too much?.
    Is the cylinder head grounded?.
   =20
   =20
    Give it a shoot of starting fluid, and see if it catchs.  You sure =
you don't have the coils paks crossed?.
   =20
    Maybe a fuel problem, that is being mistaken for lack of spark.
   =20
    Cam Timing?.  Absolutely sure.
