I drove the car for 2 years and it was always hard to start.I would have to crank and crank it and it would eventualy start. Now it seem like its backfiring or something and will not start. Ive put a cam and a crank sencors in it and also a new computer. Im not sure where to go with it.

Do this before you crank the engine over-In a spray bottle with gas in it-spray into the throttle body. Did it fire up instantly? If not could be lacking ignition spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system if it has spark, check the fuel pressure to rule out a failing fuel pump.
