How old is your battery. I had the same issue and I replaced my battery and it started up.

Are the plug wires installed in the correct firing order on the cap?

Do the injectors spray fuel?

Have you checked the mechanical timing?

Have you checked your 101 ground on the back of the t-stat housing?
