My computer won't let me open either one of the links

I am gonna try and replace all the fuses on the side.

Can off timing cause NO spark at all? Just wondering...
(Never dealt with off timing)
*Edit* On my Chevys I could have off timing but still get spark.

Large clouds of black smoke....I think this is going down a road of more than just connections and starting issues tbh...

I'm trying to deduce where it went wrong. At this point I'm contemplating a junkyard
