89 740 turbo no start 700 1989

First let me say what a big help the FAQ's are as well as the folks on this board. :) To my problem; I replaced the power stage/ ign. amp. this weekend. and I got it to run for just a few seconds- then nothing. Whether this matters or not, while I was installing it (with the battery ground disconnected) the screw driver shaft grazed the neg. terminal and arced slightly. Could this have fried my new ign. amp.?

So now I've run through the checklist of relays; fuel pump, radio supression, and ignition amplifier but it still won't start. The tach needle jumps very slightly while cranking so I am assuming the Hall sensor is ok.

A while back I had the coil checked and was told it was fine. Where do I go from here?

Thanks!
