Default LS swap- need HELP!

just got through bolting a 94 LS motor in a 93 del sol. i was told it was a straight plug in. so i did no repinning. we go to fire it up, and the motor just turns over. it doesn't sound like its trying to hit. we put a timing belt on it, could it be out of cam timing. i aligned it like the manuel said. please help

First off, do you have a check engine light? If so, what codes are thrown? As for the timing belt, take the valve cover off, use a 19mm socket with long extension and turn the crank until mark is lined up to TDC. Make sure the dash/line on each cam gear is pointing to each other. If not, then you're probably off a tooth. Fix, and do one full revolution again to verify.

as far as i know, there was no codes. someone else was in the car cranking it. it might be the timing belt, i don't think the side marks were pointing exactly together. i will see if there is any codes and post tommorrow. thanks

i readjusted the timing. its lined up. now its still not starting. i checked the main relay- checked out fine. went and checked fuel pump, pump works but the lead wires to the fuel pump aren't turning the pump on. so i straight wired it. it started to pump but still no starting. so i checked the distributer and didn't get a reading on the primary side. could this be my problem? please help! i need all the input i can get.
