Problem overview

Some Chevrolet Tracker owners report experiencing starting issues characterized by a lack of spark at the plugs despite fuel reaching the injectors. These problems can stem from a faulty pickup inside the distributor if there is no injector pulse detected. Additionally, if there is injector pulse but no spark, it may indicate a bad ignition coil that requires replacement. Owners also note the importance of verifying spark at the plug wire, as this is crucial for diagnosing a "no fire" situation. In some cases, resetting the Engine Control Unit (ECU) by disconnecting and reconnecting the battery can help in troubleshooting. Furthermore, if the spark plug appears dry with no spark when tested, it may point to ignition system issues, particularly in models with a 2-coil on plug system, where both coils should be inspected. Lastly, while fuel may be reaching the injectors, owners emphasize the necessity of checking that fuel pressure is within specifications, as inadequate pressure can also contribute to starting difficulties.
