Isn't the coil built into the distributor on that engine? Do you think you could have a coil or cap problem? I'm guessing that you have something wired wrong though judging by what you say you have to do to get it to crank.

what ecu? also, you cant just plug the obd0 plugs into the obd1 distributor... do some more research

its the p28 from the doner car and obviously being im using the si engine harness with the obd1 dizzy they wont plug in ...in case there is also a dizzy jumper im using...sorry i didnt mention that just figured that would be an assumption
