check main relay.. check ecu fuse.. if that failes.. try to jump your fuel pump to see if it will prime or not.. if it doesn't then u'r pump took a shit.

Assuming you tried a new ignitor/ignition module when you tried the new distributor, did you check for power at the wires that attach to the ignitor?
