Re: 1990 RS Camaro wont start.

Can you be precise about exactly what tests and checks you've done? You said it has spark, so if that's true even under failure conditions then it wouldn't be the ICM.
Is this a stock RS? Is it a 3.1L or a 305?

Try some starter fluid and let us know if it attempted to start.
