My car started acting up, when I was driving I would loose all power and rpms, then they would slam right back on. now my car wont start at all, im not getting any spark to the plugs and they arent "wet" like they should be. can you tell me what my next step to diagnose this problem would be.

Hi,

I agree with what legitimate007 suggest and both the items mentioned are in the distributor.

1 more thing in the distributor which you also look at is the ignition coil.
