change cas with new ones, do an oil & spatk service with a flush added and that should help, i did my cas, starter motor and battery before realising that the main problem was a dirty engine as well...

Check if theres any water under dizzy cap if so get it out. perform spark test on leads. if tester not avaliable diconnect all of your spark plug leads take out 1 spark plug and put it in its lead and place it in the strut tower. so the metals arent touching but close to and turn the car over to see if its getting any spark. It would help if you told us what happens when you try and start it. does it still turn over? does it kick a little?
