Default No Fuel getting to the engine

I have an 86 Olds Cutlass Ciera. 2.5/4 cylinder. I drove it 3 days ago and it died once, but restarted and ran fine. The next day it wouldn't start, and it still will not start. It is not the fuel pump or the fuel filter, both have been replaced. It turns over and turns over but will not start. It has fire. Plugs & wires seem fine. Need some help! Have kids & this is my only transportation..trying to get this figured out as quickly as possible. Thanks

You need to check for fuel pressure at te fuel rail and go from there.

From my experience when a car has fuel and spark and it cranks but won't start it is a good possibility that it's the timing belt that needs replaced. First you should replace the fuel pump relay in the fuse box, that should cost only about 15 dollars. Also go to youtube to find out how to read your computer codes so you can fix anything that shows up there.
