Isuzu Amigo Spark Problem

1992 Isuzu amigo 2.6L manual will not fire. It was in an accident and I had to replace a Tie rod. Then it wouldn't start.

I replaced the ignition coil. The whole distributor, wires, cap and rotor and the computer. It gets a bright blue spark but still will not fire.

The spark plugs are wet so it seems to be getting gas. I tested compression and it' good. It will not fire at all.

If you have spark, fuel, and compression, check timing to see if it is out.

I did checked the timing. It turned out during the accident some wires in the wire loom were damaged. I soldered them and now i'm getting a message from the computer code 41 that it is not reviving a signal from the distributor and code 61 air flow sensor circut.

I opened the loom up and tested all the wires with my multimeter and can't seem to find any other short. Yet it will still will not fire.

I am out of ideas of what to try next.
