List what you've done to resolve this so that we aren't suggesting what you've already done.

Check to make sure you get fuel by listening for the fuel pump prime when you first turn the ignition to the on position and before you crank the car over. If you get that, I would then start with the ASD relay, crank or cam sensor (crank being the most common to go since it's exposed), then the final thing is either the ECU. The ECU is the less common over the rest btw.

Mine did the exact same thing, and it was the cam sensor that is inside the distributor, I thinkthe new distrib.I got at Advance Auto was right around $200. Have'nt had a problem since.

The ignition timing is all done with the crank, cam sensors, and ECU, not to mention the many sensors inbetween all of that. So if your ignition timing (includes fuel injector timing) is off, your source signals can be mixed up or even the relay that give them the ok to be powered up.
