check if you got spark...take one of your plug wires out and put it against metal...check if you spark coming out the spark plugs...if you dont...it should be your igniter but then idk cause you got a new distruibuitor...if you have spark...then it might be your starter

if not the igniter, it could also be the cam position sensor, which is built into the dizzy...you could need a whole new one...best bet is a junk yard or a buddy who has one that works, cuz a new one is gonna cost you some bucks
