84 fleetwood...the car drove fine, on the freeway turned off. towed home and saw no spark but injectors were firing. distributor tested and is fine. replaced capacitor, injection module, coil pack, and cap is all new. now, no spark and no fuel. any ideas? an yes everything hooked back up correctly.

im sure youve checked all your fuses.

starter turns over ok?

other accessories like interior lights and such work?

sounds like alot of things arent getting power or a brain is telling things to not get power, like distributor and fuel pump.

actually i didnt check fuses yet...i'll do that in the morning, starter is fine, fuel pump is fine, distributor is fine. and all lights work. i'll check fuses but from there i dont know...

WORD!!!

Gotta check your fuses FIRST, when you are having problems. So many times people dont take the time and put alot of money into there rides getting no results...

With these cars you should know right away if its a fuse because there is so much shit wired to each one. Just check your manual it will tell you what is all wired to what fuse....so if somthing else hooked up to same thing wont work, its a given that its the fuse.

Good luck man, let us know how it goes.

fuses fine...playing with them though it started right up and after reving it up for a few seconds it died again. just replaced a temp sensor and still nothing. it doesnt look like it but maybe loose wiring by fuses???

Press off and warmer on the climate control itll flash the codes, that may be a good start.

I'm having probelms with my 4100 too I repalced the dist. cap wires, spark plugs, hoses, oxygen sensor, battery and ysterday it wouldn't turn over. The lights weren't dimming like a battery/issue but it still won't turn...

thats very possible but that code also means the battery has been disconnected at some point. Make sure you get the computer with the same ID code as the one that you think is bad. I has a similar problem with mine and it was the ECU.
