Car turns over but won’t start. Battery light and check engine light is on.
What is your question?
My car turns over fine but won’t start. Last time this happened it was corrosion on the distributor rotor. I didn’t change the rotor then so this time I changed the rotor and cap and it started and ran perfectly. Then after sitting in my garage for a weekend it wouldn’t start again just the same as before. I double checked to see if a coil wire was loose and nothing is. Nothing else has changed since starting my van fine on friday. The check engine light and battery light is on, could this possibly mean the battery has enough juice to turn over but not spark? (The spark plugs were recently changed too)

If it's cranking over it's probably not the battery but having a fully charged battery is a good idea. If it's cranking very slow it won't start. Charge the battery and start with basics like fuel pressure and scanning for codes. Report back with your findings for more help.
