I just got done installing my new Accel/LPE intake base, and now the damn thing wont start. When I pulled out the distributor, I marked the rotor to distributor base location and marked on the distributor base where it lines up with the intake. I put it in in the same position I took it out and now it won't start. So this morning I took it out, flipped it 180* and it still won't start, I have no clue what is going on. Does anyone have ANY ideas, it might not even be the distributor, I don't know. I just need help!

I say timing is the issue. If thats off it might not start. Also, make sure you hooked up all your connections (very important) and you don't have any EXTREMELY bad vacuum leaks. Next try to make sure you have spark if everything else is fine. There really isn't anything else that could be wrong at that point so keep checking.

It could possibly be the ECM. Make sure when you turn the key to the on position, the check engine light comes on. If it doesn't, you might have blown the fuse to the ECM. Another thing to do is to make sure you have a spark, and make sure the car isn't flooded.
