Car won't start after LT install

Hey guys,

Just installed my pacesetter lts. Now the car won't start! I installed new plugs when I did it. ( ac delcos, gapped a .050 ) It's getting fuel, I took off the fuel rail to get a happy hooker on it, so I turned key to the on position a couple times to prime it. Fuel comes of out the shradder vavle now. I pulled off a wire, and put one of the plugs I pulled out in it and when I crank the engine, it doesn't spark! I had it against the header, in case it needed grounded. I just had the whole ignition system replaced at my shop ( cap, opti, ignition module, the works ) and it ran PERFECT when I parked it. Sadly, it took a month to install the headers b/c the engine slipped off the jack and fell 1" on the drivers side, taking off part of one finger of mine. What do you guys thing is going on? I pulled the wires to the air pump, it makes a noise when I turn it to the on position. ( headers have two bolts in them to block it ). So I thought maybe it was just a vacuum leak, so I put two of the tubes on the air pipes, and capped them, to no avail.

Thanks for the help!

Re: Car won't start after LT install

best advice i can give is to go back over everything that you may have disconnected and make sure it's connected...

Sorry to hear about your finger.
