Use periods and paragraphs, reading those run on sentences will give anyone a headache. It's pretty difficult to understand what you're saying. Is the car not starting after you updated the ignition, did it surge and die on you while driving, is it just randomly not turning over?

If it's not turning over just after you replaced your ignition, you should go back and double check your work.

If you haven't replaced the fuel filter try that. Also, either take a blow torch to your current O2 sensor or replace it all together.

Sorry! The car ran fine. One day it just didnt start. I would crank it and ithe motor would just spin and not fire up.

No spark at the spark plug wires. No power at the fuel pump. When i changed the distributor i swap it out exactly the same wway it was. Timing is on point.

heres a question.

How do you know its not getting spark? have you tested the plugs/cables?

How do you know you arent getting fuel? Do you hear the fuel pump prime? Pull the line from the fuel filter and prime the pump. Are you getting fuel out of that line? Have you looked at you injectors?

Have you done a compression test to see what compression numbers you have?

do these steps and report back....

I know, I always question it too. First rule of E-troubleshooting is you don't let the user tell you they have ruled something out. Consider everything and question their test procedures.

I checked spark plugs by pulling them out and connecting them to the plug wire and had someone crank it. no spark.

I did not hear the fuel pump prime. nor any pressure release when i loosened the line on the fuel filter. no pressure, no noise.

Compression is on point. and injectors are 50,000 miles old. done every maintenance on the veh. my father owns a shop so its always in tip top shape.

My next suggestion would be to check the extra fuse under the hood. cant remember the amperage off the top of my head. but it controls injectors, ecu, all that crap. I would also check and see if you are getting power to the pump.

yes we checked the fuses. i still need to check the main relay fuse under the coin holder on the driver side. its a pain to get out.
