O.k. this is a post to say that the problem i had with my 93 jeep cherokee not getting spark and just turning over and over and not starting is finally solved!!!!! I would like to thank everyone who gave me insight and helped me with this problem for the last week and a half since i bought jeep for $800 bucks not running.... Took the chance and i think it payed off
i tested everything from pickup coil to ignition to pcm and cleaned grounds and replaced coil with no avail. Once again i wouldn't of been able to do all of this without the help from the experience from senior, junior,and newbie members. I Highly recommend anyone with a problem like mine should do all the tests that everyone tells you here before throwing parts to try to fix the problem because you'll never be able to diagnose other problems when they pop up....

And after all this said i will tell you what the problem was!!!

CRANK SENSOR!!!!

9 times out of 10 a crank no start is the CPS. Glad you got it fixed and I bet that what $60 part got you one hell of a deal on that jeep...
