did you change the timing chain because it broke? If so you have bent valves and need new heads, reman'd. a compression test will confirm this.
No I just changed it cause I thought it was the timing chain it's got good compression
Yes the injectors are spraying and I replaced camshaft sensor and no dice
That's under stable I can't still figure out why it won't start thnks
Check injector timing. If they are spraying 180 degrees off the car won't run. If you can get the engine to fire up when you spray gas down the throttle body, that's probably what's going on.
It does pass gas and if I spray gas in the throttle body it won't start nothing happens the timing is at top dead center

bad fuel pressure regutator will dump fuel into manifold and it cant start if you smell gas, that could be the issue also - pull vacuum hose off regulator and see if any gas is in there - there should be no gas at all.
