    . Test all under hood and under dash fuses with a test light or multimeter:

    . Check the ignition switch for wear, pitting, or melting.

    . Check for power to the distributor.

    . Disconnect any tachometer, which may be shorting out the distributor.

    If you didn't mark the distributor beforehand, the timing may be too retarded. Loosen and rotate the distributor housing slightly counter-clockwise (CCW).

    Good job. I recommend changing main relays, ICMs, and coils every 120,000 miles or 10 years, whichever comes first.
