Disconnect the fuel line from the rail, direct it into a clear container, jump the fuel pump relay, and put a couple inches of fuel in the container, set it on a shelf for 10 minutes. Have a look.

You have fuel, you have spark. it *should* start and run..... Unless the fuel itself is bad? How does it smell? have you checked fuel pressure? (I don't have time at the moment to review the thread... off to work here shortly.)

have you pulled a plug to see what they look like?

How did you check for spark? Have you double-triple checked your spark plug wiring to the correct plugs?
