it may be the crank sensor (among many other possibilities, of course). it should throw a code. you should check

If it has fuel, spark, and compression with the proper timing it should be running.
One of those are not working. Maybe your not putting out enough fuel pressure.

When you say "it cranks but wont turn over" do you mean that it turns over but will not fire?

El Crapitan, the 90's don't have a crank sensor. (Well none that i'm aware of!)
My suggestion to the OP is to re-check your spark and fuel. Another thought is that the ignition itself is messed up.

they do. located inside the distributor. when they go, you may have spark, but it will be erratic. when checking spark, you have to pay close attention to it's consistency as well. it would throw a code as well. always check for codes first. the system is there to be utilized

there's also a tdc sensor located inside the distributor which could cause the same symptoms. that as well would likely throw a code.
if you can get a hold of a test distributor, i'd give it a try

Could be a bad main fuel relay.

Yea a distributor would have been my next guess.

agreed with el crapitan and bank2me. this problem comes up alot, car should be starting but doesnt, and very often its the distributor. happened to me twice, and others countless times.
