I have a 95 4-runner, it is now in the shop for troubleshooting due to no
fire coming to the distributer. I did all the voltage checks and ohms
checks for the distributer, the coil, the igniter and the PCM. All were ok
just not fire at all to any cylinder. I recently did a head gasket
replacement, timing is correct, I went back and checked all connections and
ensured all grounds were properly grounded. The dealership said they cannot
to on OBD until they get some kind of electrical out put to the distributer.
Does this sound flaky? Does anybody have any insight on what else I may be
able to check? Thanks for your time,

What is a PCM? Are you referring to the igniter? If not, have you checked
the igniter?

You said that the timing is correct after you did the head gasket
replacement. How do you know this? Did the engine run after you did the
head gasket replacement or can you not get it started after the work was
done?
