check your fusible link on the battery cable. chances are that blew before anything else.

it is located on the positive terminal where the green fuse looking connectors go. feel the wire. if it feels like the wire is hollow, more than likely it blew.

He might of screwed you.

when you hooked up the lead incorrectly you could have spiked the ecm. since your getting fuel though you might be ok. See if you can check codes on the ecm or communicate through the obd port.

I agree with dori...the fuel is a good sign.You need to check your coils for spark.FSM PAGE EC-156
