Radiator hose broke now i have NO spark?
Unfortunately you might have to change the electronic distributer. If no spark make sure the battery is top notch and that all your wireing is dry from your starter to the alternator. You might want to change it on principle. Good luck. I'm sure you will get it.

I had a similar thing happen to me but after I refilled the rad. everything was fine and my truck started right up.
What happened to me (and maybe you) the computer shut me down before any damage was done.
When you turn on the key, do the same lights on your dash turn on. Like the check engine light and others? That's when the computer is doing it's checks. If no lights come on then you need to either reset the computer or replace it, if it's shot.
