1998 Olds Intrigue won't start.  It does turn over.

This car started quitting when she turned left sometimes.  She would
come to a stop, then it would start fine.  Then one day, it just quit
and now it won't start.  

You can draw an arc off the plug wire, and if you remove the injector
pressure valve cover and push in on the schrader valve, gasoline
squirts out.  I don't have a pressure gauge, but fuel does flow out it
with the key on.  

The computer has stored 0 codes.

It has a timing chain, not a belt.

I would appreciate any thoughts.

Crankshaft position sensors (I believe there are 2) are a common problem
for stalling Intrigues and V6 Auroras. Would be the first thing I would
check here.
