The engine will not run. Battery is good. It seems the engine does not get spark. Just cranks.

Confirm that there is no spark first. This guide can help

If the engine runs on starting fluid the spark is okay, if it wont lets change out the crankshaft position sensor which is common to fail. This should fix it. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
