1992 Isuzu Rodeo Question 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Manual

My cousin and I just replaced the head on my sons 2.6 liter due to blown head gasket and cracked head. It is all back together and will crank over but will not fire. Have spark tester hooked into it and have tried starting fluid but still does not try to fire at all. Is there something simple I may be missing?

What are you missing fuel or spark? You need to establish this -do below

Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine atleast 3/16 away from ground-have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs, coil's resistances, distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it
