I have a 2003 Ford Taurus and problem is that the car will turn over but not firing or something is not engaging. I have replaced the ignition coil pack, spark plugs and wires and the crank ignition sensor. I have checked the fuel relay sensor, all fuses, fuel filter, and all the ignition sensors. The battery is fairly new. Could someone please let me know what they think that it might be. I have ran out of places to look. The check engine light does come on when I turn the key and try to crank it but I don't have any way to get to a place that has one of those hand held computers to see what the problem may bve. Any one that could help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Cranks but will not start, do below:

Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine atleast 3/16 away from ground-have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs, coil's resistances, distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it
