Sorry, its cranks, gets gas and has spark, but just cranks and does not try to fire, I'm lost???
Does it crank very fast? If it does, you "flooded" the engine. Try pushing the gas pedal all the way to the floor (this shuts off the injectors) and cranking the engine. Sometimes this helps start the engine. If not, then try removing one or two spark plugs, put a teaspoon of engine oil in each (to regain compression). Reinstall spark plugs and try starting again.

Use a littel bit of starter fluid but not too much. If it doesn't fire then there is problem with the ignition and/or timing.
