Have you checked the ignition pickup sensor in the distributor? If this dies, the comptuer doesn't know when to fire the spark plugs or when to fire the injectors. If you've got spark, but no fuel from the injectors, -then this is not the problem.

I'd check the rest of your fuel delivery system. Are both pumps working? Is the pressure sufficient? FPR is in good working order (and not stuck open and allowing continuous free-flow back to the tank).

God bless and I hope it's something simple.

P.S. Back when I was trouble shooting my car (when it was dead and before I took ownership of it), I pulled my computer, AMM, and timing computer and tested them in a friends car of the same year. Everything checked out good.
