Default Help Please no sparkkkk

hey guys this is what happened,

i took off 2 spark plugs off my dizzy so nobody could steal my car, i was in a bad area, i started the car without them on by accident and it sounded weak im like ok let me put the 2 back on the cap, i start the car, still sounds weak like its on 2 cylinders

so i call my friend and he says unplug the ecu, take the terminals off the battery, and take the fuses out under the hood, which i did, and then i put them all back on after a few minutes....after that the car sounded like it was turning over and had spark for a minute...then it just went dead.....no spark at all i had some guy start my car while i checked for spark in the dizzy and valve cover, there was none

so now i have my dizzy off and i dont know what to replace in it....or if its even my distributor...i checked all fuses and they are good.....does anybody know what it could be?, thanks a lot

It could possibly be the Ignition control module. But I remember one time while the engine was running, I removed one of the spark plugs and it just shut off and wouldn't start again. I checked the coil and it was bad so I just replaced it and it worked fine.

We need more clues.

Can you follow this flow chart and nutzandboltz.com?

Ignore the stuff about clutch switches.

Did you check if there absolutely is no spark flowing through the coils?
Solenoid?

quick test. take a test light and touch the negative terminal on the coil. the test light should flash as you crank the engine. which means your coil or wires are bad. if it doesn't then you ecu,wires,or igniter is bad.
One First thing you should check is did you put the plug wires in the right place in your dizzy!
