            How do you know its getting spark and fuel? Pull all the plugs and make sure they are sparking when key its turned? Check for spark from the coils?

              beacuse I checked for spark when I pulled the wires off,and for fuel I used a fuel gauge.unless some sensor in bad which would keep it from starting???

                Just because you're getting spark at the wires doesnt mean your plugs are sparking [img]smile.gif[/img]

                    Pull the plug, hook the wire and plug back together, ground out the threads of the plug (make sure they are grounded) and have someone try to crank it... [img]smile.gif[/img]

                        If all of the above doesn't work check your engine bay fuse box on the ignition fuse which should be a 10 amp wiggle it around. then if that doesn't work pull the fuse and twist the legs of it to where you have to almost wedge it back in place. the fuse boxes are real bad about doing that... Ran into it quite a few times in the past couple years at the shop. if that doesn't work let us know.
