I bought a POS 96 626 to be my daily driver so I wouldn't put a lot of miles on my FD. It will no longer start. It's getting spark, fuel, and air. It died will I was driving it. Is it possible the timing belt jumped? The starter cranks, but it won't turn over. Any insite will be greatly appreciated.

I found the problem. The distributor cap autozone gave me is the wrong one. Bastards! It screwed up the firing order. It's not like any of you gave a damn to answer, anyway.

With all of the detail you provided us, I'm surprised we couldn't pinpoint the problem.

Don't forget the firing order. Leading = lower, Trailing = top. Oh yeah, it's a 626.
