No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs, coil's resistances, distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it

Thanks for the advice. Had the coil checked and was good. Had the ignition control module checked and it was good too. Would the cam or crankshaft modules cause this. Is the timing an issue. My daughter was driving it and it just stopped running. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Also if I replaced the crank sensor would I have to set the timing and if so would that cause it to act like it was not getting fuel
