Question
Engine turns over but I am not getting any spark.
I drove this car into storage in the fall.  Started it twice over the winter noproblem. So far I have replaced the spark plugs, coil, coil wire, distributor cap and rotor. Plese point me in the right dirrection.  I have owned this car for over ten years and have never had any problems starting it after storing.
            thank you,

Answer
Do you get voltage at the coil during cranking? if not it could be a bad ground or a blown ignition system fuse, if you are getting spark, checkout the position sensor.  also, check the fuel, it's likely that it has turned to sludge being stored for over 180 days.
