CRANKS BUT WON'T START

Crank engine over for 10secs then remove a sparkplug do you smell fuel and see wet sparkplug. If not check the spider unit under the upper plenum.

Got this funny feeling you don't have injection pulses.

Tried that and do have fuel smell but spark plug was only a little damp. Thought it could be a timing chain problem but I pulled the distributor cap and it rotates which led me to give up on the timing chain possibliity.

Check the fuel pressure and comeback with the readings

fuel pressure readings at test port was 59. Book says 57 to 61 is within peremeters.

I assumed you've checked for spark. Got spark open up the IMTV and inspect the spider

I tested my spark plug wires even though I had spark at the plugs and it turns out the wires were bad. The resistance in the wires was way out of tolerence, still giving spark but not a strong enough one. As soon as I replaced them it fired right up. Thanks for all your advice. I look forward to passing on any assistance I can.
