She is a 92. Getting a good hot spark. Have changed everything except m.a.p., cps, o2 sensors, and computer. She crancks over, but will not start. Checked all the fuses. only fuse that was bad was dome light fuse. I am dumbfounded. Also have checked the fuel rail, she is getting fuel. ?????

You need 4 things to happen for ignition, fuel + spark + compression + timing = ignition. If any one of these isn't present the motor will not run. Try priming the throttle boby with fuel. If
it still dosen't fire than I'd guess your timing
is off or theres a compression problem, check your timing, if it's back firing then maybe your
timing is 180 degrees out. -Mike

Reseat the CPS connector. Did this just suddenly happen or is there more to this story?

Battery went dead. (I left the lights on). Changed the battery. Next day on the way to work, she started losing speed. I could put the pedal to the floor only to flood it and go slower. Got home that day to see she used 3/4 tank of fuel to go 34 miles. Since then, I parked her and bought a jeep. Been doing what I can, so I can sell her. I only bought her to last me 9 months or so, until I ordered a new Ram. Didnt work that way though. Buy lasted me 1 1/2 months. Where exactly is the CPS? under the drivers side on the block? She wants to start, just wont. Have primed the throttle body, no good there.
