The AutoZone website has a diagnostic section for this engine.

The engine has no ign spark or injector operation?

Did the engine have injector operation before the ignitor change?

You checked all the fuses including behind the ash tray on drivers side? A blown fuse a common problem. Check these fuses if the car has them: EFI, IGN, AM2

Check cam and crankshaft timing.

Rotate crank pulley to 0 degree mark with No 1 cylinder at TDC on compression stroke. No 1 is closest to the timing belt pulley. Dist rotor should now be rotated to the No 1 cylinder electrode position on dist cap.

See private message.
