Hello, you don't have a crank-shaft position sensor. Have you done any basic testing? Have helper crank it, while you check for spark at the plugs? Primary voltage to the coil is pink wire, goes hot when you turn on the key.

Yes ive checked spark, it is fine, but I got a new fuel pump and I dont think its putting out enough psi? The car has been sitting for 6 years and ive replace whole fuel system and spark plugs, distributor, distributor cap, alternator, the car still wont run. I dunno what to check next?

Check fuel pressure 40--47psi, key on engine off. Also check for an injector pulse, engine cranking.
