Hi dennis! The first thing that comes to mind is distributor. Check the integrity of that. Then plug wires of course. If you are getting spark at some cylinders it's likely distributor on out. Just in case here's a no-start troubleshooting guide in case you need to look elsewhere. Hope it helps. Good luck! http://www.samarins.com/diagnose/index.html

Your ECU is toast. This is the most unreliable part of this car. Capacitors leak after 20 years.
