When you test the Inj. fuses the key needs to be in run position, also make sure of the ground on your Test light, finding a good ground can some times a bit of a challenge when testing.
Find an old spark plug that fits in the plug wire end and lean the Threaded end against the Block or Exhaust Crank car or start and look at the gap. If you see arching in the plug gap you have spark, Hopefully a strong one.

or you can Buy a off the shelf tester

If your not willing to learn better just sell it because you will get drained by folks that will take advantage of you.

Just go to any part store and ask to borrow their noid light. They will just lend it to you if they know you or charge a deposit that you will get back if they don't.

Olschool, where are you located? If you post some info in your profile, there may be a Forum member that lives nearby that can provide assistance. If not directly, surely someone can direct you to a reputable shop nearby that is reliable and comfortable working on the C4 Corvettes.

Good luck... GUSTO

That's pretty convenient, you need to send a PM to DUB (Forum Name)
https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...47173-dub.html

DUB's in the Charlotte area and hangs out in the C1/C2 and C3 Forum mostly. He's a great resource and should be able to help. He runs a shop in the area and if he can't help, he will certainly steer you in the right direction.

Good luck... GUSTO
