Double check your work. You may have disconnected some wires. Are you sure the cam timing was set correctly?

I did the timing top dead center and all my wires are hooked up I've checked multiple times

They are brand new and plugged where the old ones are I'm about to take off the harmonic balancer and double check the timing again though

ive changed mines as well and now it wont start neither. ive been at it since last week. it seems like theres no fuel but i have over a half a tank
