Try checking the screw inside the distributor mine came out the other day and it wouldnt start sounded like timing was off and it was the screw inside the distributor.

that is the only thing you change in your car?no codes in the ecu?main relay fuel pump working fine. make sure all your ground are good.

its a fully built ls/v and since it is a obdo to obd1 you cannot see that the ecu is throwing a code.......i have checked grounds and fuel pump was working fine i just don't have spark..........ill go through the fuses again but if anyone else has something that would be great

You can jump the ECU and still see what codes (if any) it is throwing?

it could throw a code, you need to jump the CEL pins at the ECU so your CEL will flash on your dash, it will tell you if there are any codes. The ECU pin numbers are D4 and D21 that need to be jumped together for reading your check Engine Light.

when you changed it over to obd0 to obd1 you had to use a obd1 distributor.

what did you end up doing to the connectors from the engine harness that plugged up to the distributor? did you end up buying a jumper, or did you un-pin the two obd0 connectors and re-pin the obd 1 connectors in? or did you solder the new ones in?
