Car listed above is an SXT model with a 2.4L DOHC. I put in new ignition, coil pack, new cam sensor, new crankshaft sensor, new spark plugs, and new starter. I've checked fuse, I can hear the fuel pump. I charged my battery but nothing; it cranks but does not start. what do I need to do to get it started and driving?

Good morning,

For a quick test, spray some carburetor cleaner into the air filter and see if it starts and shuts off.

Did you check for spark at the plugs?

I would also check the compression to be sure the valve timing is correct.
