Okay. Replaced MAP, MAF, crank, cam, IAC, TPS, PCM ,relays fuel pump,injectors,fuel pump regulator,timing belt,spark plugs,ignition coil packs,air filter and entire air intake housing assembly. Rebuilt throttle body. Checked for correct voltage and resistances on every circuit. Timing is TDC compression stroke, have awesome compression. Temperature and knock sensors great, oh yeah, even installed brand new O2 up and down stream sensors just for the fun of it. Still cranks, no start. Anyone?

Welcome to 2CarPros.

Have you checked to see if the engine is getting spark and fuel? If you have good compression, timing is correct, and you have spark and fuel, it has no choice but to run. Sensors and other things may cause it to not run properly, but you should be getting something.

Do me a favor, see if it starts for a couple seconds using starting fluid. If it does, then we know it is fuel related. If it doesn't confirm spark to the plugs.

Let me know if there are any diagnostic trouble codes presently set and if the immobilizer light stays on.

Take care,
