I tried to start my car one morning, and it hasnt started since. I put in a new battery, New coils and housing, and plugs. I'm getting fuel out of the regulator when i try to crank the engine over. so it leads me to believe spark is the problem.. How can i tell if it's the ignition module, relay, sensor, or otherwise? Thank you,

Disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine -have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs,distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors- Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it
