Welcome aboard new member. Take a few minutes to update your signature line as per "Welcome New Forum Member" Sticky at the top of forum threads index.

Next, cruise on over to the FAQ sticky. (Can be clicked below in my signature line) Check out LIFT PUMP/OPS and diagnose first fuel supply issues.

During cranking, are you getting any smoke, white maybe?

While cranking, crack open an injector line, see if you have fuel getting to the injectors during cranking. No fuely, no starty.
