No start after setting timing and operator error 200

One thing that could have happend is you just fried the Hall sensor inside the distributor.

This would apply to all electronic ignition systems up to 1988 when I think they went to a crank sensor instead of using the distributor to tell the ECU the engine was running.

Hook the timing light to the coil to distrubutor wire. Crank the engine while holding the timing light's on trigger. If the light triggers, you have spark.

If no spark, verify the Hall sensor according to the test in Bentley, 280-9.
