If its getting a snapping blue spark and the correct fuel pressure and injectors are pulsing it should fire up if the valve and ignition timing are okay, if not check it

try jumping it off, the battery may be low on juice, also make sure that it is getting gas to the carb, i had the same problem recently and it was cuz gas was not getting to the carb like i thought it was, so i pulled the top of the carb off and cleaned the area where the gas comes in at and then it fired right up.
