Listen to see if your fuel pump is coming on when you turn the key to run. The next thing is to check to see if you are getting a spark.

The car will crank with a bad TFI. That doesnt effect cranking. Check for spark at the coil and then move to an actual plug wire. Remove your dist. cap and make sure rotor is rotating in relation to cranking.
Also look at the last thing you worked on and make sure that cant have anything to do with current problem. 90% of the time, it does.

what about the alarm does it have some type of starter kill on it. Ask who ever installed it. I think that could be it if u have one. my .02

i just checked, for spark (by using the method described in the previous reply), and there is none. so does that mean that the blaster coil is no good or maybe the relay switch. (since there is no spark at the distributor then i think the tfi module should not be the reason for it not turning over, just my o2). anyone have any suggestions????
