Car has trouble starting

My car has trouble starting. It sounds like it's going to start but it just won't crank over. I changed the spark plugs. I also changed the valve cover gasket but still would not start. What else could I check for?

what year? check to make sure you're getting a spark and then if that's good check for fuel delivery. Check timing too.

it's a 95 ls. I also forgot to mention that it burns oil and there is oil in the 3rd cylinder.
