Urgent...No start: no spark or fuel
I am getting fuel up through the fuel line though. I popped it off and primed the pump and got fuel to there. But when i used the fuel pressured tester on the schrader valve i go nothing with the pump primed
You need to step back, take a look and make a list of what you did so far!
I see 3 pages back you already started a lengthy conversation about this problem. In which you stated
"I tested it correctly this time I believe lol. I got no spark. So I thought maybe the wire going from the coil to the opti was bad. I took the wire off and sure enough I got spark coming from the coil. I'm guessing this is still a valid way to test it? The only bad thing is, is that noone in my town sells the wire...figures"
Just a few things I want to state.
Multiple posts are difficult cause for example, I was about to ask a question you already addressed before. Stick with one post, clear it up if you have to. Make a summary of what you have done from time to time.
Second, if it has spark at the coil but not after it, there ain't much else to figure out. Tie that to the opti you claim to have installed and Ta Da.
Third, in your other post, you don't even know how to connect a spark tester in line with a spark plug but yet you feel compelled to change the opti? Some thing is wrong with this picture.
I understand the compulsion to repair it yourself but it seems at this point you might be your own worst enemy. Take it some where.

I installed a brand new delphi opti from thepartsladi and I had the exact same problem as before.
I knew how to connect it, I just wasn't paying attention to what I was doing because I was aggravated with the car.
The only reason I posted another thread is because noone was responding to the other one.
While cranking have you been able to get the noid light going?
Unplug the connector at the opti and unplug the "black" connector at the PCM. Check for continuity on these pinouts. B2, B3, B14, B20. Use shbox site to see which wire is what.
I am only saying to do this, as this is what was the final diagnosis for my car after replacing all of the ignition and still no spark/start.

I just realized something today that I didn't notice before. The cap on the new opti has about a 1 inch or so crack along the side between the opti harness connector and where the spark plugs attach to. I don't know if this happened during shipping or during me installing it. Would this be the problem?
looks like your installing a new opti.
heres a good start
