[quote=DAVID GAGNARD;1315597]Not a stupid question at all, simple answer is take off one spark plug wire,one of the front one's is the easiest to get to,then have a friend or your wife stick their little finger in the spark plug boot while you crank the engine,if your engine is firing, you WILL know immediately......

It's easier this way: have your wife or a close friend sit in the drivers seat. Pull the plug wire off of any spark plug, wet your finger and stick it into the plug connector. Now have your wife/friend try to start the car.
If you wake up lying on the garage floor in a puddle of your own piss and have a large bump on your head, you've got spark.
