Default 94 Lesabre, won't start.

Needing any possible causes. Started my 94 lesabre and went inside. When I came back out it was dead. Restarted it and immediatly drove it about 40 ft when it died. It wouldn't start again. Pushed it back. Replaced fuel filter, spark plugs and wires. It will occasionally start up once on the first time I try it but dies almost immediatly and will not restart. Tried starting it and giving it gas but it still dies. It cranks everytime. Just doesn't start. Any ideas are helpfull. Thanks

Default Well, It's fixed...I think!

After checking for fuel pressure and compression we checked and it was not sparking. We tested the ignition coils and they tested good, we tested the ignition module/ignitor and it tested good at the auto parts store. We checked the power coming into the ignition module and it was reading a good 12v. We cleaned all the parts (they were covered in dust as we live on gravel) and put it back together, said a little prayer and it started right up!Guessing it wasn't getting a good connection because of all the dust. If it starts happening again we'll try this first!

maybe it,s the fuel pump ! run a pressure check on the pump and also check for spark at the plugs ! it also might be the fuel pressure regulator on the fuel rail, not letting enough gas get to the injectors !
