I have a 95 ford contour and it was running fine for a few days. One day I went to get in it and it wouldn't start. The motor will crank and the feul pump kicks in. We have replaced the coil pack and the cam censor. What else could we check?

Verify if there is spark or not when cranking the engine over. If not, could be the pickup coil inside the distributor-this is what tells the control module what position the crankshaft is in, for delivering spark at the right time.
If it sat for 2 years then the battery may be loosing power and if the car starts after a few days it sounds to me like the battery isnt charging properly from the alternator so get that looked at and see if it fixes the problem.
Your crank sensor may be really dirty and can't get a good signal from the reluctor near the balancer. Check the wiring harness to it as well. You may need a new crank sensor.
