Hello, can you double-check the model year for me? If the vehicle cranks good but won't start, have a helper crank it, while you check for spark at the plugs and injector pulse. With TBI you should be able to see injector spray? If no spark or injector spray, maybe a problem with rpm signal? Any codes?
