Changed starter, turns over but won\'t fire

We changed the starter on my son's Sam yesterday and now it wont fire up. The starter is turning the motor over fine but we are not getting fire to the plugs, we checked to see if we pulled any wires loose and didnt see any. Are there fuses somewhere that might keep it from firing up. Its a 90 model with FI

Thanks

Mark

Mine did the same thing.
Replace the ground that goes from the dist to the firewall.

Mine did not appear to be broken, but when I replaced it, all was well. Use a jumper wire with gator clips to test.
