I am assuming that the pr3 is odb1, are you getting spark to the new distributor? Is the td-42 a new or used dizzy? The coil might have went bad if it's used. Are you sure your conversion harness for your dizzy plugs are correct? Did you do them or is the harness purchased from a reputable company?

It's because the td-42 is an obd1 dizzy atleast according to the part sites and thats why the car wont fire. You are using an obd1 dizzy with an OBD 0 ECU. If you pickup a p28 with a obd1 conversion harness you will be set to go.
