ok some times it will start. but when u start to turn on the heater, headlights, stereo it will die but if u dont have any of these on it will sit and idle fine then u go to put it in gear it dies. ive checked the spark and it is very light. there isnt a spark every rotation. the cps is only 6 months old. could it be dirty.

Before you spend any $$$ and a lot of time, clean your battery terminals and grounds, especially the braided strap from the firewall to the back of the head.
