ok folks....ive got my baby here. ive owned this car for 14 years.. but anyways she's been parked for the last 2 years and ran fine when parked. cranks good, fuel pump kicks on and fuel pressure but no pulse from injectors or spark. ive done all the basics i can think of, ICM,Coil,Cap,Wires, grounds, checked wires for cuts or mice chewed,even changed the ecm with a spare i had. everything checks out as i can see and no change in condition. probably be something stupid and hopefully someone can point me in the right direction. i would probably stumble across the problem but i dont have a garage or the spare time to fumble with it for a weekend at the moment. ive gotta get this thing moved. any helps appreciated. thanks

The one thing I noticed missing from your list was fuses . There is one on the fender near the charcoal can which powers the ECM (and thus the injectors) but I didn't think that one also did spark . Also fusable links from the main +12V terminal on the starter that power several different circuits . Could one of those have gone open ?

I see your list includes coil, is that the ignition coil, or the pickup coil?

Do you have an rpm signal?

Limited on tools where its at right now. But im glad someone mentioned the pickup coil. I forgot all about that. Going to try another complete distributor i have tonight. Thanks guys

Pickup Coil!

Cool, glad you were able to fix it. I was pretty sure that was the problem, I think the only things in 88 that would keep the injectors from pulsing is either no RPM signal (pickup coil) or a bad ECM.
