stopped, started, no start 700 1987

I have an 82 240 in the garage with the same symptoms, i went as far as replacing the hall sensor ( held on with two clips) after having replaced the distributor.
So I don't know if it's bad or not, except for the external symptoms. No tach bounce, no spark, and a known good power stage

It ran beautifully till,I attempted adjusting the timing, when it stopped dead.
I replaced the icu/ distributor harness (spliced in wire in much better condition). Readings at the harness are in spec.
I have a source for a used distributor, and will avail my self of it.
if this doesn't work I'm going to take the radio and tires and call a scrap yard.
