86 240 DiD 9dead in driveway) 200 1986

I recently gave my car a tune up. (monday) hooked up all the wires dist. cap rotor ect. the problems came when i checked the timming with grandpa's old timing light. the engine ran then sparked sparked and the engine reveed and died. cant figure out whats wrong. the sparks were coming from the #1 wire at the dist. cap to the ground ...now the engine cranks and when checking the coil no voltage going in (or out) i cant figure it out and it seeems that every mechanic is out of town until after the fourth of july...ive thought it might be the brush pack in the alternator ...all the fuses (next to the drivers door) are ok. someting else ,when i turn the key i dont hear the buzz from the fuel pump.
