hey guys, i need some help imma newb at these motors. im used to the J-body sunfire and cavalier 2.2L and 2200 motors.

now my problem is. i had my car running yesterday, perfectly, no problems at all. now today i go to start it up. no go. now i figured a fuse. nothing blown, so i try again. no go. so i figured it would be fuel related. nope, fuel pump still goin. running and everything. so i know theres fuel getting to the motor. well last i check spark. nothing. so i checked all my fuses, relays and everything in between, still no spark. but like i said im a newb at this. so for any of you gurus, i need help. hopefully somebody has an issue and fixed it before, thanx.
 


crank position sensor or cam position sensor possibly..........but it could be a lot of different things....those two parts do fail a lot on our cars though. most often the crank position sensor fails.
 
the coil packs i have are rebuilt ones, like someone took them apart, cleaned for a temp fix. borrowed ones off afriend works fine. . jobber = pos part from ebay for something, no numbers on the packs
