92 camry 4cyl no start, got fuel, spark, combustion

new guy here, got a 92 camry, girlfriend drove home from work at 830pm, tried to go to work at 630am the car just cranked and wouldn't start. i've checked: spark-yes, fuel-yes-loosened the line on top of filter definetly have fuel and plugs are damp with gas, combustion-185-yes, distributor-yes(took off cap and everything looks fine), timing belt-yes(pulled cover off a little bit looks intact), when #1 cylinder is TDC distributor is pointing to #1 also, all fuses are good, trouble code= jumpe E1 and TE1, just keeps flashing constantly, stopped counting at 165, broke a boot on plug wires so i replaced the wires and plugs. ok thanks for checking this out

"jumpe E1 and TE1, just keeps flashing constantly"

If it's a steady flash with no change of the interval, it means there are no codes.

It would be helpful to know how many miles are on this car. That said, you said you have spark, but was a good spark. The coil inside the distributor can go on these cars producing only a weak spark, which is sometimes not enough to ignite the mixture. You need to check out the coil with a digital volt/ohmeter and the spces form any manual. There are manuals stickied at the top of the Toyota Camry forum over at AutomotiveForums.com that are available for free downloading. Download the generation 3 manual and run the tests.

thanks for helping

it has 217k on it, timing belt was replaced at 160k. i can't get the dist apart, i want to check the air gap between signal rotor and coil, i have the cap off and can't get the red rotor off, if its even supposed to come off, took 2 screws out from the bottom and can't get it to budge at all, there are 2 more screws towards the engine more, take em out? i checked the resistance of the pickup coils "G" and "NE" on the connector, was in spec.

think it could be (if the 4 cyl has one) a camshaft position sensor?
