Default 2003 chevy cavalier cranks but wont start

My 03 cavalier (2.2l ecotec model) was running fine when I bought it with 184,000 miles. The car shut off on me one day and will crank but won't start. I have tested the ICM and my vehicle is getting a spark (it also has all new spark plugs) & though I don't have a fuel pressure gauge. I tested the line and saw a satisfactory amount of fuel squirt out, so I'm confident it is getting enough fuel. I had also replaced the fuel filter just to be safe. So with fuel and spark what could keep it from starting??? Any help is appreciated. Oh and I took off the engine cover to inspect the timing chains tension and condition and it appeared to be in working order. Thanks in advance -Ben
