To start with the van's distributor came apart, so I fixed it. Well, then it melted that yellow thing in the distributor. So, I bought a new one that drops in ready, but I'm still not getting any spark or fuel. Can you please help?

First, I would check all fuses.

If the fuses are good, I would check for power on the positive side of the ignition coil.

Here is a guide to help with that as well:

Also, make sure ground 105 is connected, check out the images below to see what I am talking about. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what you find. We are interested to see what it is.
