just because fuel pump is working, doesnt mean fuel is getting into the combustion chamber. maybe clogged fuel line, or clogged fuel filter or injectors

I heard once that a way to see if your injectors are working properly is to do as follows: Turn your car on. Take a flat head screwdriver and put it on the injector(anywhere on it) Put your ear on the handle of it and listen to see if you can hear them spraying or not.
Ive never tried this but I figured you may want to give it a try. |

If you can give me more symptoms on the problem i could troubleshoot it for you. Is it turning over..Is it clicking..Is your fusebox getting power..Is the rotor inside the distributer still good..
I'm taking this stuff in school right now so i might be able to help you out. |

Yes it is turning over, and has power. fuel pump works and has spark. Just got a re-build dizzy not too long ago.

check compression. it takes three things for the engine to run, fuel, spark, compression.

I checked the timing belt. It is still in timing and in good shape. I also checked the main relay and that works fine. What else could be the problem?
