does the car crank ? can you hear the fuel pump before you attempt to turn it over ?

spark, timing, and fuel are your friends.. chances are your down to looking for spark and fuel.

Did you have to replace it or was it just not connected? Mine literally burned up. Crazy... running amplifier ground wire now lol.
