Started the saturn recently. after about 10 seconds, it shut off. now, it will crank, but never starts. Not even sure where to start. any ideas?

Could be many things. Are you getting fuel and spark?

Timing, spark, and fuel. 3 necessary things to start a vehicle. Check spark first. What kind of plugs you using? How clean are the battery terminals? Are they tight? Solenoid good? Test the coil packs. Do you hear the fuel pump prime up when you attempt to start? Lots of possibilities.

I have this problem now and this is what i replaced:

Fuel pump
Fuel Filter
Crank position sensor
Air intake sensor
Throttle position sensor
Fuel injector
Pressure Regulator
-The ignition module is good (checked @ autozone)
-ALL fuses are good, checked and rechecked
-Enough fuel pressure at carb

Still not running.

As stated above, you need to do more diagnosis on your own.

First thing is to check for spark at the coil towers (where the spark plug wires connect to). Yes no?

Next is there a humm when the key is in the RUN position. This should last for 2-3 seconds.
