Lightbulb Ignition system!

Here's an idea I didn't have yesterday, go get a new wire set, cap, rotor, plugs, and a coil, then drain all of the gas from the tank, and crank the engine over with the injectors removed to dry the system out, unless it's a SPICA system, which I doubt. Then fill the tank to full with fresh gas,(don't forget the fuel system cleaner). To prime the system(this has always worked for me)turn the key to ON, don't touch any pedals, then wait three seconds, turn the key to LOCK, then switch it back to ON, three seconds, LOCK, ON, three seconds, then START, it should fire within ten seconds, but most likely right away. Hey, it's worth a try
