1997 Ford Probe mileage: 102,000. The car quit while my wife was driving. I am not getting any fire from the distributor. I tried another distributor, crank position sensor, relay and PCM. Still cannot get any fire at the plugs.

Check the timing belt as it may have failed and consequently the distributor may not be rotating.

Most common cause is the distributor. Do not buy an afm one as they are really cheaply rebuilt and probably will only get 6 months to a year out of it. Buy the oem one. It may be more coin but it will last a lot longer.
