Wires and distributor cap too-they should be changed if you are going to rule out ignition problems. You can check the wires with a digital meter, but if you know they haven't been replaced in a while, do that-distributor caps are a little trickier in that they can hairline cracks or 'carbon' tracks that can disrupt the spark.
Check the plugs for spark, pull one out and lay it on a metal part with the wire attached,, crank it over and see if it sparks, if yes, then squirt some fuel in the throttle and see if it fires, narrow it down to something. Check the oil, the electrical sensor in the header is an oxygen sensor, it will not effect the engine, If you don't have a spark, pull the coil pack off the old engine and bolt it on the new one. Check it out.
I want a lot more information than what you have given me as there could be 20 answer's to that question at least so its between 3 minutes, and rebuilding the engine so either use SKYPE or answer on line A.S.A.P Ron
the injectors are fired thru the engine cotrol module but it gets its signal to fire from the pick-up located inside the distributor if you are loosing injector pulse only the ignition module is bad if you are also loosing spark when you loose injector pulse your pick up is causing the problem if you replace the pick-up i recomend you change the ignition module when doing so because they work together and you have to remove the distributor to change the pick-up
Hello;
Make sure the distributor wires are hooked up and making a goodconnection at the base of the distributor. Also make sure the coil wire is fully in the socket. Make sure no wires got pinched for the relays. Hope this helps;
Thanks;

try buying new points (yes there called points) gap them then install them, they go under the distributor cap, by the condenser, also, the sparkplug wires go in a certin order so if your not sure call an michanics shop and tell them what kind of car you have and they'll tell you what order they should go in. also did you gap the spark plugs??
