Pull the coil wire and check for spark from the coil. If spark is ok Spray starting fluid into the intake and see if it tries to start. These vehicle have fuel pumps go bad all the time at 100K-150K miles. So if it tries to start you would need to check fuel pressure
Just a few ideas without knowing too much about whats going on. Check for spark first, then check to make sure you are getting gas to injectors. Coil pack or rotor could be bad. May be a stupid question, but is the battery good? If battery isn't putting out enough juice then it wouldn't be able to turn over the engine for long to start. Test it with a volt meter (should be around 13 volts) Hope this helps.
check for spark if there is no fuel coming out of injectors you can borrow noid lights from orielies auto parts check the injectors for pulse width if you have no pulse your computer is bad if vyou have no spark remove dist ributer cap and see if rotor turns while cranking if it does check for spark between coil and dist if no spark you more then likely have a bad ignition module
Do you have a little screw driver? there is a fuel pressure test port take the cap out now be carefull when you do this crank it and at the same time press the shrader does gas come out like alotnot just a little but alot if it does then the fuel pump works now if it dribbles then your fuel pump failed,Okay if the fuel pump works the only thing that is left is the coil and ignition control module, before you decide to do the module or the coil the number on reason for it not to start is connection to the coil I see this all the time go to the coil connection and have some one crank it while you wiggle it and see if it start then.now if it still doesnt start youll just have to test for spark and if there is no spark your best solution is to replace the whole distributor why because there is a relector that has always failed even when it gives spark. and fuel because as a timed unit it gave fuel and spark at the wrong time here use the picture included in #1 wiggle connection #2 check for spark
this year hs a real problem with the fuel pumps and the fuel pump connector, this makes the pump run slow and you loose fuel pressure. the fix, replace the fuel pump and the fuel pump connector at the fuel tank.
the starter could be too close to the flywheel. try adding a couple of starter shims. it also could be drawing to many amps from internal corrosion from water intrusion.
