welp i replaced the intake gaskets on my 95 cutlass ceira, 3.1 engine, now it wont start..
when i did the job i layed out the push rods in order so i wouldnt mix them up, i didnt remove any plug wires,when i go to start it ,it makes sounds like its out of timing and then it will just crank and crank, and then it seems like it wants to start then nothing,i checked the fuel rail and when i press the valvefuel does come out,i checked the plugs none of them seem wet ,all pretty much look dry, im at a lose ,like i said i didnt remove any wires and everything worked fine up in till now,

Welcome to AF, recheck your work, are the injectors pulsing, any connectors not reconnected, got spark?
