The car wont start. I replaced the coil pack for the #1, 4 plugs. It trie to start but wont. I had some one turn it over while I removed the plug wire from the coil and its getting spark. When I turn the key I hear the fuel pump run. I can do a little work on cars but not much. Any suggetions. Thanks for your help.

Try spraying some starting fluid or carb cleaner in the throttle bore opened up, then crank it. What happens?
