O.k., first off, the check engine light constantly blinking means you have no diagnostic trouble codes present. That's good, that eliminates alot of possibilities.(Of course, I'm assuming you've jumped the check connectors to make that happen.)

Next, did you remove the distributor from the engine at some point during all these repairs?

Because a common mistake is to install the distributor 180 degrees off. That would cause exactly the symptoms you've described.

If the distrib is ok check that your injectors are firing. Easiest way is to listen with a mechanics stethoscope (hold the rod against an injector) while someone cranks it. If they're firing the clicks will be loud and clear. Check that +B in the check connector is hot when ignition is on. If not, check the IGN fuse in drivers kick.

A little late for that there newbs! The problem is long solved by now.

That's alright...we all get a little over-excited sometimes. Don't feel bad.

I have a similar problem. It seems as though I am not getting gas when starting. If I press the gas pedal a little bit it will start right up.
