Having Trouble Getting A 97 Town Car Started And Running.

Both the fuel filter and the fuel pump assembly have been replaced. Is it possible the cam sensor or electronic ignition control module are the culprits? If so, where are they located in the engine compartment. I'm at my last straw. This is the only car I own and we need it running. Please help!!!!!!!
