just as a clarification, do you hear the engine crank over and it just won't start? or you turn the key and you hear nothing from the engine?

Yes. I hear the engine crank. But not start. Appears like no spark from coil.

My guess is ICM/EZL also.Try tapping it, it's worth a try as it works for my spare. Last I checked, new EZL's were over $1k. Used are a couple hundred to as high as $800 on eBay. Make sure you get the correct or compatible part number.

have you put 12v directly to the starter (middle pin of plug near the vac booster) to jump start?

oscargav, how do you know that the replacement ICM is good and not the reason the engine won't start? Did it come out of an automobile with an engine that you saw running?

I have a fried one that I could sell you and you could not tell the difference from a working one, other than the engine wouldn't start or run.
