Does it sound to be spinning over faster than normal?
If yes, you could have a broken timing belt.
*Quick check: remove distributor cap and have someone crank the engine. If the rotor spins, the belt is together.
Can you hear the fuel pump cycle when the key is turned to the 'run' position?
If no, you could have a defective Main Relay or a fuel pump which went south.

a few things to start off with

more info:

any spark, getting fuel, does the motor catch then die, or does it not catch at all. try to be more detailed and specific.

It just spins over. Not any faster than normal. In the morning I'm gonna check the belt but it has been replaced 5K miles ago. Is the main relay in the fuse box under the hood? Also is their a place I can check to see if I'm getting fuel to the motor? I haven't checked to see if I'm getting spark or not. will check in the morning.

Thanks for the ideas guys, You are a big help.....
