Are you sure it's getting spark, air and fuel? Do you smell gas after trying to start it?

i know for a fact its getting fuel, the spark plugs are covered in it after cranking. i tested for spark and it looks to be firing just fine. as for air like i said i have no vacuum but it does have compression on cylinder #1 at 135psi. I dont smell any gas either.

Crank sensor. Try unplugging it and see what happens.

the CPS goes out from time to time. He's probably just trying to eliminate things.
