Hi:
When you say "no fire" do you mean no spark to the plugs or no start? Also, have you checked fuel pressure?

There was no spark anywhere. Tried to replace the stator(?) Inside the distributor cap but could not get the two nuts loose, so replaced the distributor instead and it runs fine now. Just need to set the timing a little better than by ear. Thanks for the response.
