Hi crippledcarpetman,

No injector pulse means the ECM is not giving the signal.

Was the check engine light showing prior to engine not starting?

I would suggest checking the cam and crank sensors.

Thank for replying.There wasn't a check engine light.I've since found the timing belt to be bad.Any idea if the elect. box under the drivers seat is the computer and why it would vibrate?Thanks

Not sure on the vibration, but that engine is an interference engine, meaning pistons and valves can collide when it goes out of time. You may have internal damage.
