Been having many issues for a while (posted about it here: http://www.therangerstation.com/forums/showthread.php?t=55547). I've honestly just been waiting for whatever was going bad to permanently do so and it finally has :)

My 92 will no longer start at all, just cranks. My fuel pump does not shut off until I remove the key. What I have replaced so far (most before we knew what was wrong exactly):

Plugs/Wire/Air Filter
Distributor Cap/Rotor
Idle Air Control Valve
Ignition Coil
MAF Sensor
Fuel Pump Relay
Fuel Pressure Regulator

We're pretty much leaning towards bad computer now...would that be a good guess? Or is there anything else I should try before I tow it to the shop?
 
Have you done a compression test yet? I would try that before throwing out the money for a new computer.

Gettin' spark?

Was told the dealer did a compression test. And yup, it sparks, it always has.

The last part we replaced was the fuel pressure regulator. Still wouldn't start. We decided to try a few more times just now...it started up twice and cut off twice after a minute or two. Third time it stayed on. Now it's starting up fine, driving fine and the fuel pump is cutting off when it should. The gas smell and the newer and older normal roughness are gone too. It now sounds and drives much better than it ever has since I've owned it. I'm hoping maybe it just needed a few more tries after that last part? I'm going to take it to and from work tonight and see how it does then drive it somewhere to get the oil changed tomorrow.
