Default HUGE ignition problem

ok here is the problem... my bros dc4 came with msd igintion which we had no problem but a weekago some how wires got shorted inside the distributor i guess and burned up the wires from the distributor and to fuse block inside the block(where the connectors are).... so i replace the distributor with my distributor and of course tape the wire back up so it wont short anything.... i started the car and it started fine.... and 3 days after driving all of a sudden exact same hting happened... the car shut down while i was going somewhere.... so i got it back to my house and tried to figure what was wrong but cant see anything..... checked ignition fuse that was fine.... check the wires and distributor and everything seems fine.... it has to be somewhere ignition but i duno where!!!!
the car cranks with the starter but seems like i get no spark or fuel so im assuming somehwere iginition is jacked up..... any advices???

check to see if you have spark... then let me know from there... sounds like you may have a iggnition problem or u may have a bad main relay... let me know if you have spark...thanks

check every single fuse using a DMM and check for proper voltage. is the rotor bolted on right? is the firing order correct, hook up a fuel presure gauge and read fuel preasure, is the fuel pump relay clicking?..

bro when i mean check ur fuses i mean also check the connectors to them u might just have a loose pin where the fuse connects to, evidently all these componenets share a same fuse or ground connection..try wiggling the fuses around with the key on to see if u get interior lights... check the wiring diagram for these components.
