the car won't start, it cranks but won't start. i have spark. i don't have any way to check fuel pressure, but i have flow only when cranking. i just put a timing belt on, also reverified that my timing was correct. verified that the injectors are pulsing. also checked compression, cylinder 1 - 85, 2 - 110, 3 - 150, 4 - 120. tried spraying some starting fluid in the throttle body and would get the engine to sputter, but wouldn't continue to run. don't know what else to look for any help would be appreciated thanks
