Hi crippledcarpetman,
No injector pulse means the ECM is not giving the signal.
Was the check engine light showing prior to engine not starting?
I would suggest checking the cam and crank sensors.

Not sure on the vibration, but that engine is an interference engine, meaning pistons and valves can collide when it goes out of time. You may have internal damage.

Put new timing belt on, found water pump frozen up. Got it back together and fired right up. Still need to test drive. Thanks for your help.
