So far, I've changed the ignition coil and ignition pick up coil, rotor, and crank position sensor and the ASD relay. Also changed the wire from the ignition coil to the distributor.

Hi,

The first things I need you to check are fuses. Check fuse 6 in the interior fuse box and fuse11 in the power distribution box. In addition to checking the fuse, confirm there is power to and from them. (See pic 1)

If the fuses are good, then I need you to check two wires for power. At the coil, there will be a gray wire. With the key on, confirm it has battery power. Also, check the orange wire at the distributor for a 5v reference when the engine is cranking. See pic 2

If the fuses are good and there is no power at the coil, work your way back to the ASD. Remove the relay and locate the light green wire with a black tracer and the red wire with a dark blue tracer. With the key on, both need power. Confirm that you have it. (See pic 1).

The two remaining pins should have continuity to ground.

Let me know what you find.

Take care,

Joe
