If it cranks good but won'tstart, have a xhelper crank it, while you check for spark at the plugs. If you have spark everywhere, use a gage and check fuel pressure. Any applicable mil codes? You can check those yourself.

With TBI, you should be able to see injector spray pattern, engine cranking, anything?
