it just cranks and cranks and cranks some more...every once in awhile when i release the key is may sputter but only once in awhile...no weird sounds or nething. the only things i havent replaced yet are the cap and ignition switch. but i heard i wouldnt have spark if either of them r going bad. should be gettin them in the next couple of days. i love this car and dont want to get rid of it. to much work ive put into it. shes fast when it starts. lol thanks again every1

A: Check your F'ing grounds.
That's not it, but do it anyways.
B: Replace your coil. You can get a weak spark and the car won't start.
Before anyone want's to say "No way it can't be the coil" Been there done that. I froze my *** off on the Canadian Border and Chris walked something ike 800 miles back and forth listening to advice like "It can't be the coil" business.

yes i have pulled the whole rail off and watch each injector fire. ive done engine grounds even checked to make sure with a wire from the battery ground. i tested the coil and it all matched up fine with the specs. but will look into gettin one. thanks!

If you see the injectors spraying fuel, then I'd look a lot harder at the ignition side. If you are getting spark then my guess is that it's a weak one. I would expect that a healthy spark with erroneous timing would at least produce backfires. Have you checked the cam belt to see if things are lined up properly?
