6-ECT (Engine Coolant Temp sensor)
10-IAT (Air Intake Temp sensor)
13-Barometric Pressure sensor
16-Fuel Injector

What ecu are you using? That is a wide variation of codes. Did you plug all the everything back into the right place? I would double check too make sure that your wiring is right. Do you have all of your grounds attached?

 

pm6 everything is hooked up right. the car ran good before it died. i tried another ecu and it still didnt start. im not getting any spark.

 

No spark usually means either the coil or ignitor is not working. You did however say that you changed the distributor for a new one. Do you have all the necessary grounds securely attached? Did you get a new OEM distributor, or a reman one?

 

reman. yes all grounds are hooked up. do you know if there is a seperate ground for the ecu? because today i went back to the car and the ecu light wasnt even flashing?

 

Do you have the ground on the thermostat attached?

 

we had this problem at this place i used to work at, the engine coolant temp sensor was bad, get a new one and it should fire right up

so if the coolant temp sensor is bad then the car wont spark? just trying to figure out a problem im having.

i think it prevents the car from turning over, it would sit there and just crank : like da da da da da da... try that make sure its plugged up to
