Did you check the resistance of the pick up coil in the distributor? I believe if there is no resistance you have to replace the coil,and to do this you have to take the dizzy out.

It also wouldnt hurt to go buy a fuel gage and check the pressure on your system, it always comes in handy when troubleshooting other problems.

Send a message via AIM to dimented24x7
Have you checked the ignition module? If thats bad, then there will be no spark or fuel as there are no reference pulses coming from the dist.

Also, does the fuel pump run for 2 secs or so when you turn the key to the on position? If not then you may have a faulty ECM.

The clicking from the TBI is likely the IAC. If its clicking, then it may be damaged, and needs to be replaced. It just should sort of buzz a little once its fully seated.
