is the CEL lamp on this farm kick missing or dead, or car has no cluster at all, I cannot see the car, so can only guess what is there and not.
some of these cars are a mix of parts now, Frankenkicks)
always :
1: check fuses (and ohm meter 0 ohms is perfect, not infinity.
2: CEL works. glows. key on. (if not fuse igCOIL IS BLOWN, or ecu dead, or lamp to Cell is bad) bad main relay too.
3: and DIAG jumped shows 12.
4: cranked 5 full seconds release key code 12 and never 41 or 42, or any other non 12 allowed.
5: check spark only at the top center tower lug socket if the Spark induction coil. only here first.
6: if rotor does not spin the cam belt is bad, code 41 and 42. no spark and no fuel, loss of spark any time ECU sees that fuel is cut 100% by design,(no fuel fires)
this is a list of best evidence on this are (dead engine,) (what I do is assume it is all bad and prove otherwise)
there is more but the above sets the compass in the correct path for more simple tests.
HINT 1: ecu THIS OLD SHORT OUT CAPS AND iG_COIL FUSE BLOWS. EVEN FLYIning down a road, it a bumb and bam cap shorts now fuse blows,
that is why recaping these old cars ECU is #1 in my book.
the mighty GE #18 CEL lamp in all its glory. 14vdc, 0.040 amps (tiny to protect ECU) 1-3/4 wedge based bulb tiny .
