Are you sure theres none on the spark plugs? While cleaning did you remove or mess with anything? Check your engine grounds

I just found out that the #31 fuse is getting no power to it. I cleaned the battery ground and reattached it thats it.

Distributor?? Receiving any spark?? ignition module, ignition coil??

Could be the ignition rotor inside your distributor. if it is the ignition module, you should see a change of color (small circleish spot) behind/on the piece!

I think i narrowed it down to the ecu being shorted. I checked the main relay all seems good but i have no pwer to the fuse # 31 not haviong power thus not letting the engine start due to power to the ecu. Picking up a ecu tomorow hopefully this works
