Default Help help help!!!!!

I have a 1986 audi 5000 cs turbo quattro that ran great up until a little while ago and i have no clue why i wont start now!!! Im thinking its the ignition coil or the module cause i have power to the coil but not coming out of it!! I was wondering if someone might be bale to help me out and clearify before i buy the part cause a new coil is $400 and i dont want to be wrong! Thnx

I can't remember the old school audi engines that much, we are talking about the inline 5 cylinder turbo correct? There has to be more than 1 ignition coil, is there an ICM?(ignition control module)

Never mind, i had to look up an 86 audi 200 which uses the same engine as yours. If you have an ignition coil that looks like a cylinder that has one lead coming off of it heading to the distributor cap then thats probably the problem if you have no spark on all cylinders.
