Default Cranks but will not start. 4 week problem

Ok I have checked the:
Ignition control relay
Battery twice
All grounds
No breaks in the wires
all fuses inside and outside the car.
computer. twice

I am not getting spark. The car started I ran it for a while then I turned it off. After that I went back loaded a tune and it would not start. So I went back to the Original tune and it still would not start. So I bought another computer. Still will not start. I do not know what the problem is. I can not track it down. Anyone else know what I should check!

Don't know if this will help, it's for stock, maybe you can find something listed that could've been overlooked. www.gearchatter.com/viewtopic8794.php

If everything checked out good and it just mysteriously won't start, I would say it is most likely a crank position sensor. If that is not working, the computer will never tell the coil packs to fire. Can't really check it without a scan-tool or an oscilloscope.

My vote is for the crank sensor.

I am going to check the Crank sensor tomorrow, with gynsis. As far as tunning software I am using HP tuners. Here is My file. You can look at it and see if there is anything that might be missing!

Let me know!
