First thing to check is take the center wire off the distributor cap and hold it say a 1/4 inch from the block and have it turned on and spin it over. If it has no spark good chance the electronic ignition has fried. If it has spark then get #1 cylinder at TDC and see where the rotor is pointing. If on the compression stroke it should be pointing to the #1 nipple on the cap. If it isn't try turning it till it come back up on TDC on #1 and see if it is then. Watch the rotor as you are turning the engine to be sure it is moving. Some times the drive gear on the bottom of the distributor will strip out and if it does that yes it will not run. Also if it has true wire spark plug wires on it then it is likely to be the ignition module has fried. Electronic ignition in most cases nee the newer suppression type wires
