Hi, I sent you a previous message that my car would not crank and that my husband replaced the distributor thinking that was the problem and the car will still not crank. It will turn over but not fire up. you said to check the fuel pressure and the spark. My husband already checked the fuel pressure and everything is in order there. Also, he said it was not the timing belt. He does not get a spark when trying to crank the car. We are confused about what the problem could be. Please help! I've been without a car for a month!!! If we could pinpoint the problem my husband could probably repair it. We don't have the money for a mehanic. Thank you soooo much! I donated some money but I guess that I did it without adding this question correctly.

Have your husband check the ignition module, cap and rotor. If there is a failure there then you won't have spark. This is a good place to start.
