Engine won't turn over
1994 SSE drove the car home from work went out to start the car later and the car wouldn't turn over. Thought it was a dead battery and tried jumping it no luck.
1. checked battery and cables all good.
2. engine will crank but wont start when jumping off starter.
3. car has a VATS system on it and tried all 3 sets of keys.
4. checked all fuses and good.
What else can i check for,

There are three things that keep a car from starting
No fuel
No spark
No crank
You've got crank.
Do you have fuel at the schrader valve on the rail?
Have you checked for spark?

Pull a plug wire and put a screwdriver in the socket, lay it near a ground and crank over. Is there a spark? If not, we have the problem. If so, check your fuel like Bill said.
