Default wont start help please

i have a 99 dakota 4x2,318,5.2 V8
in novmber it broke down sat for 4mouths and now got the parts we did
water pump,fan clutch,belt,itle pully,becuase the belt broke,we did the thermostat also becuase that looked bad. put it back together and it did not start,today i took the battery out it was bad so they gave me a new one becuase it was only 11mouths out so swiched it out,still did not start, i had the plugs so we did the plugs,they all are getting spark,and the old ones had fuel so it is getting fuel. it like wants to start u it about to rumble on but not all the way. we are running out of things that it could be.the coil is fine,it not the crank.it started just fine in novmber last time i drove it just the belt kept brakeing becuase the pullies was bad. disubory cap is fine also. just tring to get it run becuase its my only thing i have and a bike i hate rideing in the rain,so maybe someone can give me some more things to check.hopefully its something small and simple,thanks

Check to make sure you are getting enough fuel pressure. One way to tell is see if it will start on starting fluid if not then its prob you crank sensor.
