Re: Won't start....need help ASAP!

have someone watch everywhere (underhood, underneath at starter) while cranking (or attempting to crank) hopefully, one of those times it doesn't start it will spark, this will show you if there is a poor ground somewhere...
Also, if it attempts to start(1/8 turn or so) I definately think it's electrical. My only other thought would be the key switch, but not thinking so.... This may sound funny but,... if it's a tilt steering column, be sure it's in the straight position... I've had them up in the highest up-tilted position and had problems before.... also be sure the shift lever is fully in park (above mentioned Nuetral Safety Switch)
