Engine turns over very good. No firing at all. Used spark tester, and has good spark. Tried starting fluid, nothing. Put gas directly into carb. Nothing. Listened at fuel tank, turned key on and fuel pump pressures up line. Added fuel to tank, just to be sure it had gas. Need help.

To me it sounds like you have no spark, I would use this video to confirm the failure,

Here is the location for the crankshaft sensor and how to replace it. Check out the images (below). Let us know how it goes
