Ive replaced the fuel filter, and the fuel pump is working. I also replaced the valve gasket cover to stop a oil leak. i then replaced that spark plugs and the ignition pack. that still didnt fix the problem so i replaced the crank shaft sensor. after all of this my check engine light has gone off but it still wont start. It will turn over but its not starting. what could it be?

Sounds like an ignition problem..
The Direct Ignition module in the turbo model can fail but is
easily
tested and replaced.
Remove turn the , Direct Ignition module put the spark plugs in the holes, ground each
plug to the negative battery terminal by use of a wire about 2 feet
long and stripped at each plug. Crank over the engine
over watching the spark plugs. If there is a problem with the cassette, one
of the plugs will have no spark or a very weak spark. Also, when you
turn the ignition key off there should be a shower of sparks that runs all of the plugs simultaneously several times.
DANGER BE CAREFUL ! ! ! EXTREMELY HIGH
VOLTAGE! There have been occasions when the Direct Ignition module would test ok
when turned upside down but would fail when turned back over to install
into the valve cover ?
Also: Oil leakage from the individual coils of the Direct Ignition module have also been a problem. Oil leaks can be identified by
noting that there is oil surrounding spark plug hole.
Hope this helps.
Cheers MMP

Disconnect your fuel filter and turn the key on. If it shoots gas several feet away, then the start cycle on the fuel pump is probably good. if not, then get a new fuel pump. If it's good, then the problem will be in your fuel regulator, or injectors.
