There has to be something not connected or plugged in the wrong spot or the distributor is bad or cap and rotor just basically something isn't right what ECU codes is it throwing what ecu is it what motor etc.

bad cap and rotor won't show up as a code as said finish the tune up new cap and rotor are a must if you did find/get it at a junk yard
