96' Silverado won't start

I have a 96 Silverado, that won't start. I have fuel,fire, air. Fuel pressure is within spec. Double checked timing, dead on. Engine will crank-over, but won't run. Suspect something that might control injectors, not sure what though. HELP!

How are you checking timing? A bad CKP, or an obstruction on the CKP could cause a no start, but I don't think you'd have spark either then, double check the injector harness to make sure it makes good contact. What is the fuel pressure? Does the pressure drop when the fuel pump quits? Does the pressure drop while cranking the engine?

The timing was checked at the dealership along with the fuel pressure. According to them it was good.

Jeremy,
Found the problem to be a faulty distributor cap, go figure, it cost about $200.00, but I suppose that was mostly diagnostic charges.KISS!
