I know there are a lot of threads like this here, but of course my symptoms are uniquely special, just like me.
Basically I can't get more than 50 feet without the car dying, if even that. I've checked all the easy stuff and cleaned a lot of contacts/fuses, and have ruled out fuel supply as a cause of my no start/start-then-die: the fuel pump relay clicks, I can smell gas when cranking, and car won't start any better when fuses #4 and 6 are jumpered and the main pump is whirring (transfer pump may be toast but that's another story)

NO SPARK on a grounded plug and wire (most of the time), but I get one with the Hall sensor disconnected and terminals B and C jumpered as per the manual. Terminal A on this plug has 11 or 12v on it, as it should, and terminal B has its 5+ volts. HAYNES says I need to replace the pickup coil, but other threads say that is some kind of misprint, since the Hall sensor replaced the pickup coil in later models...(?)

The distributor plastic cover (between the rotor and cap) is completely loose, and the plastic base that holds the plug connector there is basically only attached by the three wires that connect it to the ICU. That strike anyone as out of the ordinary?

The coil has power but reads 1.5 ohms too many at the primary circuit. But maybe my meter is just inaccurate. The ICU has power. They are supposedly bulletproof anyways (right?).

Does anything else trump this, or do I just attack the Hall sensor? (not stoked, that will definitely require a mechanic for a guy like me!) and yeah, i have read the FAQ

Anyone's ideas will be awesome to hear, thanks fellas
