I have a 1988 lesabre that will not crank. It will turn over but it will not catch. I have changed the coil pack and fuel filter, but i do not know where to go next. I have tried the spark plugs and wires but nothing happens. what should i try next?

the items you replaced will cause no start problem, but not a no crank.

No crank would be electrical most likely.

Does it turn over? that is tries to start when the key is turned.
