RE: '88 16v won't start

["Young, Patrick" <PYoung@netledger.com>]

I get power thru the fuel pump relay.  I can hear the transfer pump and the
main fuel pump run.  My multimeter verifies my aural findings. :)

I've got a new distributor on order - not knowing the history on the car,
I'm taking no chances (I'm also a fan of over-engineering solutions, too).
Tonight will be spent going over the rest of the system with my test LED,
just to make sure I've missed nothing.

Thanks for all the advice - the consensus seems to point at the Hall sender
being dead (including Mark @ Adirondack, when I described the problem and
symptoms to him.)

Cheers..
-Pat
