I would check:
(1) Fuel pump comes on when you turn the key
(2) Fuel pressure (gas in the car?)
(3) Other elecronics work (lights) checking for grounds (all 5)
(4) stupid things- firing order of plugs, harness connections...

Is it throwing codes? My first attempt at starting did not work- I had 4 of the 5 grounds connected. Go figure.

Vacuum lines won't keep it from starting, just idling well.
