Help no start

My 90 n/a wont start. i took the air intake off to swap for a HKS. while i had the MAF unplugged i tried to crank and move the car. it would crank but when i tried putting a load on it it seemed like it flooded out i did the unflooding process and all is good. Now i cant get it to fire off. it will try to turn over but no spark is getting through. I changed the spark plugs about 3 months ago so they are all good already checked all of them . please help.

I assume you've plugged the MAF back in?

If the engine was flooded then perhaps the plugs were ruined or in need of cleaning and drying out. If you pulled the spark plug wires at the coil bore and placed the boot near the bore you could test for spark and rule out the plugs as your problem.

You also might want to recheck how solid the connection is at the AFM which you previously unplugged. A poor connection will prevent the injectors and coils from working.
