No Start 240 200

"After that, no start and seeemed like the battery was dead or dying."

Start with a fully charged battery before you try again. Then isolate the issue to one of the 3 things required to make the car go; compression, fuel, ignition.

The easiest way to do this start by proving you have spark.

Once you prove spark, shoot a bit of starter fluid in and see the car gives a sputter.

Compression is harder to prove but open the oil fill and have someone crank to see of the cam is turning.


There are about a million threads on this but the likely suspects are:

Fuses (need to do a complete fuse box service...you cannot inspect them as installed)
CPS
Fuses
Ignition amplifier
Fuses
Fuel pump relay (you never said the one you installed was known good)
Fuses
Cap/Rotor/Coil wire (pulls out of the coil side connection)
Fuses
AMM connection pins
Fuses
Fuel pump relay
In tak fuel pump and/or the small rubber hose
Fuses
