Jamal,
Have you read the 22 previous posts on this thread? First determine if there is spark at the plug.

If there is no power to the distributor, check the 12 v wire to the distributor for continuity.

just put a computer on it wont didn`t help

[jamal abdi]

how do i now if the wire is good or not good could be something else need help

[jamal abdi]

if i fix the wire and it still wont work what else could be is there something stoping the computer to send power to the distributor

I suggest you get "Professional Help".

I separated this into a different thread since you have a different model year and the previous thread had a resolution.

The most typical culprit is a weak ignition coil. It can give a spark and when tested with an ohmmeter it will barely pass, but the spark is too weak to ignite. If this is it, I'd recommend replacing with a Toyota coil...aftermarket ones don't last.

The second common culprit is a faulty coolant temperature sensor.

The third culprit is also in the distributor, called a condenser...a little barrel-shaped part connected to the left-side ignition coil. If the insulator looks melted, it's probably cooked.

Post back if you find the solution.

still have ? not spark theres no power to distributer still don`t know wat is stoping the it fromfireing up

[jamal abdi]

The RustBuster i did everything u said checked it all over again i think it could be a wire gone bad anybody can help

Then I would check the 30A AM2 fuse located in the fuse box #2 in the engine compartment along the driver's side. After that, check the igniter for proper ground and operation, also on the driver's side near the firewall, mounted to the inner fender and next to the air filter box.

checked all the fuse all have good ground, but stil cant get it everthing has but tthose to things no power to dis so theres no spark
