Default teg wont start: help a loser out.

first time ever today. batt is fine, turned over. I guess the first thing is to check for spark, whats the best way to go about this on a teg? I think it may be the distributer, what should i be looking for with that? Spanks.

best way to check for a spark is hold a metal flathead put it in the sparkplug wire and turn the car over if you get zapped move on to the next one,or just find a used plug pull out all the wires and put just the plug and stick it close to the bodyy of the car then turn it over

Let me ask, does it just turn over and do nothing?

Try spraying starting fluid into your throttle body, if it starts for a second after that...check your fuel pump.

check for gas, spark, then all your grounds , check cam angle sensor make sure everything around the distributor is connected, we need more info on whats going on.... Does the starter engage? Do you hear the fuel pump prime itself when u turn the key to ACC? Are all your fuses in the engine bay ok?

like civiccrx said. Do you hear the fuel pump come on. loosen the nipple on the filter and see if you have pressure. Dont think it the main relay if it turns over.
