Re: Still NO START! - Need Help

  The spark seemed to be strong. I don't think there's any way that I could
have turned the distributor. I didn't loosen anything other than the two
screws in the cap itself.
  Is it possible for the distributor to get out of synch on it's own?
Thanks!

With spark from coil wire and all plug wires then my understanding is
that the crankshaft and camshaft position sensors are operating okay.
With plugs getting wet, then fuel injectors must be putting out fuel.
Did the sparks from coil and plug wires look strong to you (bluish)?
Your troubleshooting indicate that you're getting spark and fuel.

If the distributor somehow happened to be turned, then the injectors'
openings could be too far out of synch. Do you recall loosening
a bolt/screw other than the two screws that hold the cap on?

It's possible that something has gone wrong within the pcm.
For example, an open ignition circuit. Do you have a bud
nearby with same dak (year/motor/tranny) as yours so that you
can swap his/her pcm for a test?

The only other thing that I can think of is a broken or jumped
timing chain.
