Egad, I love those jokes at the bottom. However, I need to admit that I didn't get one the other day. Thick as a brick?

Now, I went out to look with no intention of getting all greasy without a plan, just double checking things. All appears to be OK with the timing belt. All marks & rotor line up.

Got the volt meter out, hooked up to coil & turned the key. OMG, I have volts! It's intermittent! May the Norse gods take pity on me. I cranked while looking over the wheel where I have a spark lug grounded and see sparks. Hooked back up to #1, cranked while holding the fuel pump relay... It clicks! Still no start. I suspect that it will take a while to get fuel through the lines & injectors & the battery is in no shape for that (of course the PO put a cheap , small one in). Ho much time should I expect? Maybe I won't have voltage the next time I check. Or I'll figure out that the injectors are not firing. That diagram does look right.

BTW a big reason that I bought a brick is that they are not biodegradable like my old Subaru was. I remember those POS being described as the greenest car ever made, almost completely biodegradable. Now I find that the wiring on these things is.
