Question Start problem PLEASE HELP 98 avenger

hi, about a month ago i parked my avenger 98 in my garage backwards to tint the windows. i had the car in power but not tuned on because i was listening to the radio. after i was done. i turned the car on and it started to shake very bad.. like there was a earthquake. when i pressed the gas it would keep going.. but as soon as i let off. the car would start to slowly shut down. this was about a month ago.

- the car has not turned on ever since. i have changed spark plugs, sparkplug wires. distributor, i even have a new oil pump. which i did not put in yet. i also put 98 octain the car car before this problem. but i have used the gas a few times before as well.

- can anyone please help me. i love this car and i want it to run again.. please someone help me.. i am out of luck.

Have you charged the battery or jumped it ?
Low voltage can cause issues
