Hi Able:
"Crank" to me means turn over.
"Fire" means actually try to run.
If it won't crank and you have a new battery and starter, I'd be checking the terminal connections, wires, cround connection, and solenoid. If all of those are good then we need to start checking the engine condition. Recently running or sitting for 5 years and full of rust?

Counter-clockwise to loosen, whether it is the flywheel or crank pulley. Use NEW bolts and red Locktite when you reinstall.

1990 Cadillac Deville, and you want the crank position sensor, The 1990 cadillac used a distributor with a ignition module, It also used a coil pick up, if you have no spark trouble shool the distributor

You didn't post your engine size so please use the appropriate diagram:




GM (Cadillac) 250 (4.1L) V8 .GM (Cadillac) 273 (4.5L) V8 .GM (Oldsmobile) 307 (5.0L) V8 .GM (Oldsmobile) 350 (5.7L) V8 w/EFI.Engine firing order: 1-8-4-3-6-5-7-2 .Distributor rotation: counterclockwise





GM (Buick) 252 (4.1L) V6 .Engine firing order: 1-6-5-4-3-2.Distributor rotation: clockwise





GM (Cadillac) 368, 425, 472, 500 V8.Engine firing order: 1-5-6-3-4-2-7-8.Distributor rotation: clockwise





GM (Cadillac) 429 V8.Engine firing order: 1-8-7-2-6-5-4-3.Distributor rotation: clockwise

No fire, try an ignition module. at the bottom of the distributor

No; the most common engine for that car is the 4.5L V8.  There were also 5.0L and 5.7L engines available for the Brougham.

Has the motor siezed from lack of oil or water

How old is your Battery? at the Temp. Stated above an Older Battery even though Good may not have Enough Cold Cranking Amps Left to Kick her Over.

sounds like jumped timing belt maybe chain ,no spark is my guess if it turns over and dont even make a pop noise..
