Hello.I have replaced plugs, fuel pump and fuel filter and it does the same thing, just turns over. It is fuel injected but unless the gas peddle is held down for a few seconds it won't sound like it fires. By holding the peddle down for quite a few rotations it spits and sputters but will not crank. Could it be a sensor, I have cleaned the MAP sensor it was full of carbon but no change.

Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine atleast 3/16 away from ground-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, coil's resistances, cap and rotor, distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it
