I'm having trouble with my 95 tsi awd turbo talon I don't really know anything about them but it's getting good fire and good spark but won't start it just cranks
 
The first step I would take is to either purchase or download the factory service manual or at the very least a Haynes or Chilton manual for the car and familiarize yourself with it. Step two, I would do the standard compression and leakdown tests to ensure proper cylinder pressure. Basically, you need the holy trinity (Air, Fuel & Spark) plus compression for the engine to run. If you have ALL of those things, in the right amounts, then you move to verifying timing, verifying MAF and other sensors, boost leaks, WG and BOV functionality and checking capacitors in the ECM. There's more after that, but these things should get you started...
 
if you have a scanner you can check for any codes . one time my sons car didn't start and when i scanned it it had a code for a crank sensor so i went right into the timing belt area and found that the silent shaft belt let go and took out the crank sensor . what i am trying to say is that a scanner can lead you to the problem right away or in the right area.
 
I had my buddy come over and help me and all it was was a o ring for the fuel pump but thanks guys for the help
