92 Dodge Caravan 3.0L won't start;60's-70's veteren!

Van was running "puh-puh-puh-puh-puh," finally cutting off and had to get towed home. Changed the timing belt and triple checked that all timing marks were aligned, compression stoke and distributor pointing to #1. Still no start so changed cap, rotor, wires and plugs. Nothing, Hooked anmeter up to #6 injector wires (easy to get to) and got current when cranking engine. Got strong spark but nothing when spraying starting fluid into throttle body; not even a backfire. Fuel pump pumping into bottle from main fuel line. I know how to file points with a matchbook and set the gap with cover but know absolutely nothing about MAP's Egr's O2, sensors etc. Have Front wheel drive Chilton's but not helpful. Van was donated to me and drove it for 2 months without problems. Have tools and mechanical skill but lacking knowledge about these type cars. Thanks all!
