Your PCM is not getting a signal from the crank sensor. Check the wiring to the crank sensor, especially where it goes past the belt and where it comes around the front of the head. Also check the sensor gap. Should be 0.050", and is supposed to be checked with a non-ferrous feeler. A folded over matchbook cover is about right. A little close is better than a little far.
