Did you check to see if you have spark at the end of the coil wire that plugs into the distributor? You'll need to go back to basic's. Check coil wire for spark. If yes, Are your plug wires installled in the right firing order? Is your distributor reinstalled at No. 1 at TDC and your rotor is sitting on No.1 firing order. Check to insure that your distributor wire harness is pluged in and making good contact. Post back your findings.
