ok so i just got done rebuilding my car and everything is hooked up but when i was trying to start the car for the first time it would not go!!!!!! everything is hooked up fine and starter, battery and alternator are good and there is compression like a mother cause my hand practically got sucked down the plug hole but there is no spark so im guessing thats obvioulsy why it wont start, ANY SUGGESTIONS ON WHAT MIGHT BE CAUSING THIS????
 
check the order of your spark plug wires, then check your coil pack and power transistor (power pack). if that fails, then are you sure your getting fuel? your fuel pump relay might be shot, your fuel pump might be shot or not recieving power, are your injector wires in the right order, are your injectors shot? seems like your kinda lost and if you are, then the DSM world is no place for you.
 
check fuse 19 in your fuse block by the pedals. also check the 2 connectors by the coil packs. and maybe you had the same exact problem as i did when i rebuilt my motor, adjust your CAS. its that big round thing next to your throttle body connedted to the head. look to see if it is rotated so that the long area that you can rotate it in is exposed above the stud/nut. i hope that made some sense because thats the best way i could explain it
