HELP!!!!

I have a 91 Z-28 with just the basic mods for now, biggest mod bein the 3.73... It died on me gettin off the higway the other day, I let it sit for a couple minutes and started it back up. But when i did it ran extremly rough... If you gave it gas it would stall out, so i creeped back home on just the idle speed.... Now when i try to start it, it sits there and just cranks n cranks... I can sometimes start it when it sits overnight, but it runs like the whole passenger side of the block is blown. Which i know its not cause it ran perfectly fine before this. tried the whole starter fluid trick no luck... I checked the spark, no spark... Replaced the coil, igniton module, cap n rotor, n pickup coil (not installed yet, cause not sure how to get it out) is there anything else i should check out?? Its killin me that the cars sittin, this is the first time ive ever been stuck like this...

Re: HELP!!!!

Disconnect the tach lead (it's buried between the cap and the firewall in the harness) Put your test light on the dist/coil side of the connecter and crank it over. Tell me what you see. -Bob
