Hi guys, heres the problem.

A few months ago my car was running great. I had just rebuilt the engine and put everything back on. After fixing some grounding problems it ran perfectly.

Then, I went on vacation, came back and did some welding and forgot to unhook the brain when I unhooked the battery. After this the car wouldn't start. It wasn't getting any fuel. The coil also got really warm at one point, so I replaced it with another known good, new one I had. Now with the new coil, and a new fuel pump (I also had a known good pump) put in, the car still won't start.

It turns over fine, but it won't even run for a second on the cold start valve (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

Is there a problem with the brain or is there something else I should look for? I can't think of any other things to go bad. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) I'm pretty sure the points are good.

Its a 74 L-Jet BTW
