Thanks again. I removed the ignition coil, cleaned the contacts, still turns over and won't start. Installed new ignition coil, same symptoms. Two questions:
1) I have the distributor cap off now, what am I looking for or should I just replace it?
2) My CPS does not return measurable voltage but passes the ohms test. Is it possible this new part is my problem even though I do have spark and fuel?
