You would need a repair book with wiring diagrams to troubleshoot the ignition system. You would need to know if the coil and module are getting power to begin.

I have a 1995 chevy corsica 2.2 4cyc. The car turns over but will not start.

Yellow spark is usually a sign of a faulty coil, but you have two.
So if the coils are not the problem, it could be not enough voltage to the coils or something else.
The coil fires when the ground connection is removed, in your case the coil fires two cylinders at the same time.
I would check battery voltage to the coils thru the module next.

Engine dies out and wont start 99 dodge stratus

It may be an ignition module but these things are expensive and without a trouble code detected you may be in for a long expesive ride.
