All fuses are good,under dash and hood. Engine turns, will not start, smelling gas, put on new crank sensor and platinum plugs, got juice (power) to all coil packs, but when i take out one of the packs with the plug, ground an pair of vise grips to the engine there is no spark jumping from the spark plug when i turn the ignition just the engine turning and smelling of gas. I am just a body and frame man. please help a brother!

Check the coil's primary and secondary winding resistances and also the ignition control module.
