Default No Start

I have a 1994 Mitsubishi 3000gt SL. It currnetly will not start at all, it just keeps cranking. It has fuel, spark and injector pulse. The timing belt is good and lined up correctly. I don't know what, if anything can cause this. Anyone have ideas?

Check for compression.

It has compression and cranks normal. It sounds like it wants to start but just doesn't.

Yea, it ran fine until I took it to the car wash. I'm thinking that its the crank sensor cause I sprayed the wheels good to clean them up and it was missing the wheel well covers. I was hoping to get some additional input though. I would think that the crank sensor regulates spark and if its bad there would be no spark, but i'm not sure. Is there any other explanations?

How strong is the spark? If its weak that may be your issue.

It's fine. I actually put new plugs in it because the old ones were fouled.

Well, I'm going to assume since nobody can figure this out, I have missed something somewhere. I'm going to start from scratch and go through a no start flow chart again to verify my results. I'll post em up in a few days.
