Default Help!!! GSR won't start...

I need help with this one....OK here's the problem, my car was running fine until my friend decided to test out my distrubitior on his GSR. His GSR had a bad Ignition switch. After he swap my distrubitor with his, my car wouldn't start anymore with my original DIzzy. I ohm out the primary and secondary on my DIzzy and they both were in spec. Could it be my Ignitor? Or what can it be...It will crank but not start at all. I checked for sparks and I'm getting them in all four cyclinder. I'm getting fuel also.......I even tried different ECU's....The damn thing just won't start....Anyone with ideas or have ran into this problem before please let me know...

Last car I saw that was getting ample fuel and spark wouldn't fire because it was miraculously missing some valves. Is it backfiring or anything? I'm thinking you may have your wires mixed up.

Did you mark where the dizzy was attached with a marker? Maybe the timing is just out of spec.

I'd take the distributor and turn it 180 degrees and then put it back on.. Chances are it's firing the wrong cylinder at cranking.. The distributor can go in two ways, but only one way is correct..

You sorta have to force it to get it in the wrong way, but yeah, make sure it's correct. Make sure the wires are installed in the right order...

If you're getting spark your ignitor has to be good.

If you are getting ample fuel and spark and all your timing is correct, that means something else is wrong.

How do you know you're getting fuel? If the pump is running, & you can hear fuel in the rail, that doesn't prove the injectors are firing...

Pull a spark plug after cranking. Smell fuel?? If not, look for battery voltage on 1 wire of each injector connector (key on). Measure from that wire to ground, not across the 2 wires. They're supposed to get power continuously from the main relay. The ECU closes the ground side of their circuit to fire the injectors.
