1984 Won't Start
While in school I didn't have the time and money to take care of my 84 and am working on getting her road ready again.
I am not getting fuel to the injectors, or fire to the spark plugs.
So far I have replaced:
Ignition module
Distributor
Cap and rotor
ECM
Fuel Pump, strainer and filter
Put new injectors on it roughly 2 years ago, and parked 6 months later. Just before parking I also replaced oil sending unit and upper and lower intake manifold gaskets. When I parked it, it would not start if hot, and found a bad rubber line inside the tank so I replaced everything at the same time. It does still have the CrossFire fuel injection system.
Any help would be much appreciated.

Check the injector fuses?Fuel pump relay?

I have replaced all fuses in the car, and replaced fuel pump relay. The weatherstripping is leaking, so that's part of why I parked it. Humid south Alabama weather still got some moisture in, so I have tried to replace all fuses and relays before attempting to start to help ensure nothing shorter.

When you parked it and it would not start when hot, what were the symptoms? Did it crank and not fire or did it not crank?
Has the front coolant sensor ever been replaced?
Have you done a good visual inspection of the all the wiring?
Probably time to break out the multi-meter and start checking if you have power to various components.

I am not getting a pulse to injectors, and am not getting any power to the hot (red) wire going to the distributor.

If you made a jumper wire to 12v to distributor batter terminal will it start? Other than not starting does anything else not work? You could have blown fusible link - you really need a wiring diagram. If there is no 12v on red / pink wire to distributor cap battery terminal it won't start.

I'd start by measuring voltage (you'd be surprised how useful a testlight is), it would have saved you a lot of time/$$ when check those fuses. And you'd know if each fuse circuit had power.
