Also, make sure you have a "Full" charge on the battery.? I have have a weird cranking sound when the car is flooded and a weak battery.? I've had to put a jumper on it and hold the throttle wide open to clear it out and then it will slowly catch.? This usually happens after a few days of rain.

George, When you try to start the car does it crank like it wants to catch but 
just won't?
 Has it been sitting in the cold? Or was the car in a garage?
 What did the plugs look like that you pulled?

As far as the IGN & RPM sensors.... if you remove the connectors to test them 
your supposed to get 1K ohms.
