So did you visualize the simulation where you set ntwx=1 to see what was
actually happening? You will need to be prepared to do some detective work
here to figure out what is going on. A few things I note though:

>0.0000
> 2 C1 4.0750 0.7660 2.2570 c3 1 MOL
>0.0000

None of your atoms have any charges - this is probably the origin of the
problem and suggests something went wrong in the parameterization / charge
derivation step. I assume you used antechamber - it probably produced some
errors which were skipped.

This is a VERY old version of AMBER. I am assuming you applied all the bug
fixes from the website. Note though that this version is no longer
supported so there may be other bugs that aren't fixed.

Note your 1-4 EEL is zero here - this confirms my suspicion that the only
atoms in your system that have charges are the waters (which have no 1-4
term). This is what you will need to address to get your simulations
running correctly. I suggest working through the following tutorial using
AmberTools 12 - which you can download for free from the ambermd website.
