is the distributor turning as some of these had a problem with the driven gear at the bottom of the distributor shearing off the lock pin causing a no start as the distributor is not turning.
if distributor model check coil feed to distributot for spark this is done by grounding the coil wire. if coil module feed then check power to coil module if no power then your problem is outside the engine area in the ingition or fuses ect many possibilities
no combustion or no compression? timing chain broke? you did not supply enough info about what you tested.or how. remove a spark plug wire if you dont like shcks take an old spark plug two alligator clips and a piece of wire attatch to the hex metal body of this old plug and connect the wire you just removed run the starter while watching for strong!!! spark.you can have a weak spark and no start=bad coil.i think but maybe wrong that this vehicle still uses aignition module located somewhere on the fender.find a parts locator maybe at the library. this module was aproblem for decades.have fun.
No spark usually is caused by coil (which you already replaced), ignition control module, or pickup coil inside the distributor. The coil and the control module are the most common. The control module is located just outside the distributor, you may be able to take it off and have it tested at the dealer. The pickup coil is inside the distributor, unfortunetly there's no way to test them. Also check plugs and wires if they haven't been replaced in awhile.
