k l tried changing ignition coilbut there still isnt firing and its not the distributer, so it stopped turnig on for a min and does not turn on at all. So l have a feeling its not firing at all, but l dont know what it could be anymore, idk what does not allow the ignition coil to not fire. What do you guys think it could possable be, at first l thought it was the fuel pump until l saw no firing at all

First u should read ur own question out loud to a mirror. Now try to form it in such a way that u can tell us how u came to the many conclusions about ur car, or r u ''just feeling this about it'' ie is there any science here?

Here is how u should proceed.

1) Get a spark plug, a large hose clamp & an electrical clamp.(like on the end of a battery charger.) Hose clamp the sparkplug to the electrical clamp. You have made an ignition tester. Pick a sparkplug & remove the wire & put it on the sparkplug of ur tester & clamp it to some metal. Have someone turn the engine over while u look at the tester for spark.

Yes or no? u have tested the spark.

If yes- get some good fuel-about a table spoon full & put it on the round aluminum pan under the rubber air intake which u will need to remove to get to the pan. It is near the drivers side wheel well, going into the engine.-Put it all back together & spin it over again. It may start.

Yes or no? did it stay running?

Now edit ur question & tell what happened.
