Engine turns over but will not start. We replaced the plugs and wires and the coil pack. The car is getting fuel. What else could it be?

Did this happen all at once? Are you getting spark? Will it start for a few seconds with starting fluid?

Let me know.

The car just shut down while I was driving no noises or anything. Yes there is spark but someone said not enough. We have not tried starting fluid.

As far as the spark, it should be a blue snapping spark for it to run properly. Since starting fluid is more volatile and will burn easier, it may start with it. Let me know what you find.
