Does anybody there know what an ignition switch for a 2003 Chevy Impala is?
Yeah sure, its that thing you stick your key into to start it.
Should Positive or negative wire go to distributor?
The distributor switches on the low side of the ignition coil (-), usually a black wire. It should read ~13 V (battery) with the points open and ~0 V with the points closed (grounds it to the block). The other side of the coil (+) is usually a green wire. It should read ~13 V when the points are open and drop to ~8 V with the points closed (unless ignition switch held in start position, bypassing the ballast resistor). If converted to electronic ignition, there are other wires and the points (or pickup) acts as just a sensor signal.
1970 Chevy Impala the timing chain and gears are right and the plugs ARE firing but it just won't start?
My first guess would be you have the distributor in wrong. Give it a little shot of gas (prime it) down the carburetor and see if it tries to run at all. If nothing, gotta be the distributor is off. Put the engine at TDC (top dead center) and re-set it.
2003 Chevy Express van and won't start went out to start it and it sounded like the spark plugs had no fire or no fuel It does have both?
Look at the distributor cap and rotor button. Sometimes moister can get in there and corrode the points causing the van to not start. This especially happens when it rains alot and the van sits without starting. Hope this helps you. I almost put a fuel pump in but luckily checked this before I spent $800 to have a mechanic do it.

Why wont 2001 Chevy Impala start after replacing the thermostat?
If a 2001 Chevy Impala will not start after replacing a thermostat, perhaps it is possible that a sensor was bumped unknowingly. Check all of the sensors that might have been touched during the changing of the thermostat to see that they are all still plugged in.
