williams wont start!

[williams dp]

Got my first problem with the williams. Starter motor is turning but the car wont fire up. Is there a weak spot with a williams where i should start looking ?

Any help greatly appreciated.

ignition

fueling

check plugs are sparking first, take one out and rest it on the head and turn it over, u should see the plug sparking.

can u hear fuel pump priming when u switch ignition on?

assuming Idle Control Valve is working?

Ignition wires and or distributor cap can be shot. Replaced both on mine and starting woes were over.
