Crank position sensor? 200 1989

The car mysteriously won't start, but cranks strong, after running fine all morning. After diagnosing per 700/900 faqs and Haynes:
1. No Spark
2. Coil o.k.
3. Timing Belt o.k.
4. Fuel pump runs with key on, but I can't hear it when cranking- this may be do to the fact that the cranking drowns out the sound of the pump, though. I also ran a jumper at the fuse panel for the pumps, and still no start.
5. I do have gas in the tank.
6. I checked the diagnostic codes: 1-1-1 no problems.
7. I replaced the Power Stage.
8. Still no spark.

I have nearly resigned to towing it to my mechanic, but I realize that the next step may be the CPS. This one scares me though, as I have heard that they are very brittle.

Thanks for your response,
Todd
