The engine stopped. A week later after towing the car back, it started again. Switched off the engine. Not starting now when trying. Changed the sparking plugs and the wires. No sparks! (Terrible job! Remove the air inlet to change on cyl 1,3,5)
The timing belt OK. Can see the cam-shafts moving (for cyl. 2,4,6 when the oil-cap is removed).
Please give me an advice.

hi, can you check for possible trouble codes, At the least, you need an obd11 code reader.

Engine cranking, check for voltage at the dark green wire with orange tracer. If nothing, you need to check circuits at the asd relay. I'm not saying the relay is faulty. If the computer doesn't see the proper cam and crank signal, it may not ground/energize the relay.
