ok so ive got the same starting problem

ive had this problem since last fall and just bothered to start fixing it this spring. from what i could tell there is no spark (they showed me how to test it ) and its getting no fuel unless i jumper it directly at the fuel pump plug at the back of the car. So from what forum members told me to do i replaced the main relay right on the drivers side firewall ( they said that could be the problem ) so ive tried to start it and it doesnt start. could it be the Ecu ? i was stupid and forgot to disconnect the battery before i disconnected it. i really want to get back on the road soon and want to have a fun summer driver again.... but if i keep being lazy on fixing this it will never get done so motivation from you guys is always welcomed, but if worst comes to worst i might just tow the car to RPM ( local rotary shop which is 30 min away, which isnt really local but whatever ) .

Does anything electrical work in the car such as wipers, turn signals and so on. Do you have voltage on the Black/Yellow wire at the leading coil with the key to on? Does the starter turn over?

EDIT:

Also, with the key to on does the Black/White wire at the alternator have voltage. This wire is plugged into the back of the alternator in a two wire plug. If it doesn't have voltage then you need to check the Engine fuse in the interior fuse box to see if it is still up to snuff.
