Well, it's still possible that the coil is bad and there's a separate fuel problem. I just think it's best to start by considering a single problem that could explain both no spark and no fuel.

Does the starter crank the engine but it won't start? If so,

Check whether 15A hood fuse 31 or dash fuse 24 is blown.

Clean and tighten the G101 ground wire attached to thermostat housing.

Did you check the G101 ground?

If you unplug the main relay and jump terminal 1 to terminal 7 in the free connector, does the fuel pump run? Likewise, if you jump terminal 5 to terminal 7 and then turn the key to ON(II), does the fuel pump run?

Also sounds to me like main relay. I have also had bad or no ground wire to chassis cause this.

What was the solution to the spark problem?

How do you know the fuel pump is bad?

Could be a intermittent problem with a worn out ignition switch.
When you turn the key put a little inward pressure on the key and jiggle it.
This can give you contact with the fuel pump in key position number 2 and you can hear the fuel pump prime. Seems like 93-95 ignition switches are tending to wear out about now.
