i pulled one spark plug off and tested for spark, then i pulled the spark plug wire off the coils and tested it with scewdriver got no spark out of it, i only pulled one plug at a time
/// i will try taking all the spark plug wire off and test them all.
im in N.Y. upstate, Ulster county,,
i did a search for codes with a jumper at the terminals i know how to do that but no codes just 12-12-12-12-12etc.
i had my battery unhooked so...no codes
but when it first shut off i looked and no codes then either

Let'* review. Here'* what is needed to get spark:
Crank sensor & wiring
ICM & power going to the ICM
Ground to engine & from engine to ignition module plate
Good coils
Spark plugs & Wires
If you're not getting spark at any of the cylinders it'* very unlikely to be a problem with the coils or spark plug wires. You already checked for power to the ICM & replaced ICM.
Did you check to make sure the ICM mounting plate is grounded?
Each coil fires two cylinders at once. I'm not sure if one spark plug is fouled if the other plug on that coil will fire. Either way you should check all six plugs.
If you have a good ground & good plugs then all that is left is the crank sensor & wiring. I'm thinking you replaced the crank sensor with another bad sensor.

ok i was up late working on it with a friend that hade a *** tester or whatever its called
well that showed no power going to the injectors
so no spark and no power going to the injectors
and i do have good ground
so should i get a new crank sensor still, or does that point to something else?

i got a PCM out of a car in the junkyard, the car was hit on back drivers side
but that did not work.
will the cam sensor have anything to do with it, its the only thing thats not new [from store] that and the PCM
ill take a good look and retest all the wires.

I wish we were on the same end of the state. 'So near & yet so far'.
Still no spark from any of the coils? If so check again for 12 volts at the pink/black wire. Let'* also check the resistance of the coils. This Techinfo article explains how.
