I read where someone suggested laying the spark plug, with the wire connected, on the block and seeing if you get a spark when you turn the key. I am sure you were careful of the fuel, but did you get the spark? I would bet you it is something simple and you are just not seeing it right now. Walk away for a bit and you may have your 'ah-ha!' moment. Where are you located?

Simply unscrew gas cap, tow vehicle away, drive new DeLorean under gas cap. Screw on gas cap. Restoration complete. Ok, so I'm not -quite- ready to quit yet. I am starting to feel cheated though. Let's review: 1. Car did not run because of fuel system & electrical problems. 2. Fixed electrical problems, and most of fuel problems. Need new fuel distributor. Car ran, though poorly. Very rich. 3. Water pump leaked, engine overheated blowing head gaskets. (Yes, I'm an idiot) At this point, the car still -ran-. 4. Reconditioned engine. New head gaskets and seals all the way around. New O2 sensor, thermotime thingy, vacuum switch, (the stuff in the coolant "Y" pipe) blah blah blah. 5. I've re done the timing 20 times now. Fuel, air, spark, starting fluid. Now car does not run. I've done this before. I don't know why I can't now. Yahoo!
