When you turn the key to 'run' does the service engine light come on. This would tell you that the PCM has power. The light should come one, go off, and then come on solid if you just turn the key to run and don't try to start it. This would indicate that the fuel pump signal is good.

If all of this is fine then remove the ignition module and have it tested. Auto Zone will do this for free. If the module is good then remove the crank position sensor and have it tested.

95 saturn sl gear shifting hesitates, what could this be?

Assuming it is an automatic transmission, I would look into that first. Check the fluid level. Low fluid level will cause hesitation. If your fluid level is ok consider changing the transmission fluid and transmission filter. Saturn's have an external filter, so it's very easy to do.

2002 saturn sl won't start, turn over but won't start

If the engine fires up for a second or two with starting fluid then the fuel pump is weak.I would check the fuel pressure and if its not within the specs then replace the pump and filter.

My 1995 Saturn sl1 engine just won't start ...I'm getting spark and gas and the engine is turning over it just doesn't want to start please help thanks

Engines need three things to run, spark, fuel, compression, all at the right time. If your fuel pressure is good and you have spark then that leaves compression. Before you bother with a compression test first try to spray starter fluid in the intake to see if it will start on that. If it starts, it will die after it burns the fluid but at least you'll know the engine is good and you have a fuel delivery issue. If it won't start on the fluid then you need to do a compression test. You can get a compression tester from any auto parts store (I think even Wal-mart sells them) and follow the directions on the tester to do the test. Write down the results and post them here.
