I had a no start problem on my 1st attempt this spring and it ALWAYS fires in short order. Manifold was wet with gas so I pulled a plug, held it aginst a manifold bolt only to find no spark. Damn!
When double checking everthing, I noticed that I had only connected up one battery. After connecrting the other battery, I had spark. Turns out my MSD sparkbox must pickup its power from my #1 battery (cranking) only. (Gee, think that red wire ring terminal does anything?)
Is usually the little things we overlook that frustrate us the most.

Ok,, assuming you had spark ( you never said yes or no ) ,,, you eliminated alot of systems and narrowed it down to fuel,,,,,,,,. assuming nothing catastrophic happened.
Well assume you have efi because carb would be very obvious if you were getting fuel or not.
find a pressure guage and see what you have.
