check all of your connections and if you don't find anything i'd guess you have the opti on wrong. that's assuming you still have the non-vented 94 opti. i had absolute hell with my opt when we did my cam swap.

Also check fuses, like the coil fuse under the hood.

Just wanted to let you guys know that I figured out what was causing the problem.........I am guessing since I have over the valve cover wires now that when I went to put plug wires back on the opti they must have gotten crossed up .....I just wanted to post this incase someone in the future may run into the same problems....Alot of people don't post their resolutions ....But I am one to share and share alike....Well hope this can lead someone in the right direction.....Thanks for the reply's guys....

Glad you posted the resolution, but it does not fit the problem you described. You would have had fire even if the wires were crossed. When you said "no fire", I assumed no spark.
Getting the wires crossed up is a common mistake.

Sorry for the confusion ...at the time I wasn't getting fire...But once I found out I was getting fire....It just wasn't firing up.....But I suppose I should have clarified that a lil better after I found that I actually had fire to the plugs....
