Just to be clear, can you describe what happens when you turn the key? When you say is will not crank, I assume you mean the engine does not spin. Are you saying you turn the key, the starter engages the flywheel, the engine cranks, and the car does not start? Or is is that the starter spins and makes noise but the engine does not turn? Or something else?

Ok here is the latest problem. First let me say that i have replaced the distributor cap, rotor, wires, plugs, ignition module, ignition switch, and coil, all twice. The issue is that when I drive the car, as long as the car is hot, it starts up just fine. However, when I allow the car to sit and cool off for several hours or overnight, the car spins but will not crank. After trying to crank it a few times, if i let it sit for another several hours, it will fire right up. Then it cranks fine for a few days then it starts all over again. I don't know what else to replace. I was just told yesterday that it may be the "pick-up coil" in the actual distributor. Driving me crazy. Any thoughts? tb 71 Chevelle SS 402
