Default Finished Changing timing belt and now CAR won't START??

Ok so I changed my timing belt and water pump. Made sure the timing marks were lined up. Put everything back together.

I turned the car over without the plugs in and i forgot to pull the ecu fuse. So might be flooded?

I put the plugs in and tired to start it. No luck. Pulled the plugs, they are wet.

Let everything sit for 30-45 mintues incase it was flooded. Tried again. No start. It almost wanted to start, it sputtered a lil bit.

So then i check the plugs and each is sparking.

Any ideas? Is my timing off or what? I have no idea.

Thanks

****- I think i forgot to make sure the t-belt drive gear was aligned with the mark. I just made sure the cam gears were lined up. Could this be why???

all three marks need to be aligned...the 2 cam gears and the main crank pulley...hopefully you were smart and did a couple cranks of the MCP by hand to make sure it wasnt interfering...or you could have just bent some valves
