Default 95 prelude h22a1 not starting

We have checked a lot of things. Its getting fuel, air, and spark to the cylinders but still will not start. Does anybody have any ideas on why the car is not starting? Anything would be helpful. Thanks

Maybe bad compression?

Sounds like he is getting it to crank, if he is getting fuel and air, and spark into the cylinders. I would say check Comp, Leakage, and the Timing. Altho I think if the starter doesnt crank fast enough it wouldnt let it start up.

Yea the car is cranking. We are gonna do a compression test on it tomorrow. Also it looks like the timing may be off by a tooth or so. But still looking at other options to what it could be...

Id say fix the timing prob first, because it might throw off your compression numbers.
