CPS sensor not plugged in... could you have damaged the wiring? it sits back behind the passenger side head.

the crank sensor, cam sensor are the 2 responsible for your ignition timing and injector timing. if you have no spark, either your coil is gone, un-plugged, wire pinched & broken, or one of the 2 sensors I mentioned are dead. the crank is responsible for the spark.

the crank sensor is behind the passenger side head right where the tranny bolts to the motor, the cam sensor is under the distributor cap. here's a pic of where the crank sensor is...
