can any one tell me a list of things of things that would take out your fuel pump and your spark at the same time on a 91 da? I accidently left the key on while adjusting the lash on the valves,i started it up when i was done,sounded a lot better but smoked like crazy (white) cut it off,restarted it,ran good,smoke stopped, cut it off. 5 min later,started it again,ran for 5 seconds,cut off,wouldn't start.no spark,no fuel,pump not even running.changed out cap,button,ignition coil,modulater,still nothing!wtf! bad fuel pump?only car on the road,need it to run asap,HELP

Have you checked that the grounds are reconnected after you put the valve cover back on? Reset the ECU just for giggles, but that shouldn't affect anything.

so you do have fuel or dont?
If you dont have spark, it could be a ground. But DA's are notiorious for going through coils and ignitors.

ECU
it's either bad or you have a fuse or relay or wire wrong somewhere as stated, It's the only thing that controls both fuel AND spark
