Does breaking the distributor base cause the problems I have now?
Because when I was reinstalling the PIP to get the shaft out i hit the bottom gear with a hammer since I didnt have a gear puller and *pinkk*! the base of the shaft popped off, one of my friends said that the little cup looking thing underneath the base should be attached to the base and not moving seperatly. See the third picture in the link below if im too vague or using the wrong terms.

Im hoping this could be it because I have tested everything else and they all work good or have been replaced with a new part (except the module), ignition coil replaced,new cap and rotor, new stator, starter solenoid works I get spark to the plugs now but still no start fuel guage shows pressure new pump. Im just out of options
