1989 Supra will not start

Thanks for the reply. The car was not push started. I have read your info on 51 and I don't think it is causing the problem, but what do I know, I am the one with the problem. The car was always started normally. As I wrote, I have checked all the grounds and as far as I can tell with the meter, there is not a problem. In following the TSRM, I am not getting any abnormal readings. Am I missing something? The distributor replacement that initially solved the problem has me baffled as to why that would be the issue, when I was getting no spark off the coil prior to replacing it. Some might point me to the ignitor or the ECU, but I am trying to get some expert advise prior to replacing them as the distributor solved the problem before. The issues may not be related but....

Thanks
