Driving along at about 30 mph and just quit running. Good fuel delivery to the engine but no spark seen on any plugs when removed and the engine is cranked. What should we check next? How can you read the codes? Where are they? What else to diagnose?
Well if the check engine light was on that means you have code(s) stored in your OBD (on board diagnostics) computer. If you can get your car to an AutoZone the will hook your car up to a tester and tell you what is wrong car for free. If u do that make sure to write the actual code down ex(P0107, P1025...) b/c some problems are to complicated for thier computer. If you check engine light is not on then there are no codes stored to help u w/ you diagnostics.
You may want to check the coil and the distributor cap. that could be causing your lack of spark

take off the oil cap and look at the cam while cranking if it dont turn then you need a timing belt and you probly bent valves. if thats good then take a test light and put it on the - side of the coil and crank and if it binks then you need a coil if it dont you blink then you need an igniter good luck
