Well we can rule out fusible links coil ignition transistor and ecu.. I charged the battery up today then checked my fusible links they were good. So I put a ignition transistor out of a running 78 in no luck. Then swapped out the ecu and still no luck.

thought I had better add that its a 78 fuel injected car with new plugs wires cap and msd coil with all work prior to this.

Im having a bit of an ignition problem, right now im getting fuel the fuel pump is running but no spark. It only does this after it has rained, Apparently I have a leak in the windshield gasket at water has ran down the passenger side kick panel. Im leaning toward the ignition transistor or a relay because I can hear intermitten clicking and it will act like it wants to fire when that happens. Does anyone know what relays or controls would be on the passenger side that would cause me to loose spark. Thanks in advance

would the valve clearance be set by shimming the cam up... I noticed when installing it, the came did have a set of shims already I am curious it it needs more.

Well I believe this is my first real post on here so If I botch it up to bad take it easy on me. When I bought the car (77 280z) it had a blown head gasket but still had compression. I took the head off to find that it was pretty warped and deffinatly could use a valve job. I sent it off to the machine shop where they put all new valves in and shaved the head. So now I have the head back and decided to put a new timing chain in while im in their. I put the new head on, set the number one cyl to tdc on the compression stroke. Then sat the head on it torqued it down to spec installed the cam sproket on the number 1 dowl hole. Then put the lighter colored chain link on the number one mark of the cam sprocket and the other light chain link on the crank sprocket that is maked. Now when I bring the no.1 cyl to tdc the valves are closed just as they shold be so I put the entire thing back together and go to crank it over and have absolutly 0 compression accross all cylinders. How is that possible? I have redone the same procedure as the book describes 4 times now with the same end result 0 compression. Any ideas guys or should I just part the car out?
