Recently had the fuel pump replaced,fuel filter,all fuses and relays are good.New Dist. assy. replaced.After this work was done car ran well for 6months,then one day she wouldn't start.Cranks over but am not getting fuel to rail.Line from tank to rail is clear pump is o.k.. I'm in the process of getting a new crank sensor to see if this will solve the problem,any help would be much appreciated.

Make sure the filter is still flowing fuel properly. Remove the fuel pump and bench test it to be sure it is pumping fuel. With the age and mileage of your vehicle, I would hazard a guess that your fuel tank also has contaminants in it that may have clogged either the pump or filter.
