The car crank but not start, we placed new spark plugs, the spark wires are ok, we try with another computer, another coil, gas pump relay and still dont start. Also we try spraying gas by the trother and still dont start. Somebody thell my that could be the crankshaft sensor but I dont know how to test it. Please if any body Know how, please help me. Thanks.

Remove the distributor cap and check the inside of the cap and the rotor for wear and carbon build up. Also have some one crank the vehicle over to see if the rotor moves. If it does not move then your timing belt has broken and you will need to replace it.
