Getting fuel, but no go, usually means an ignition problem. Re-check all 
the connections to the coil, ICU, knock sensor brains, distributor, and 
anything else ignition related. Then if it still doesn't work, check 
that all the components are fine. Also check that they are getting 
power. 
Then it's on to the wiring of the car. 

This stuff is not easy to figure out always, Talk to Dave Novac, he 
knows. 

I bet it's something simple though. Like a connection that shook itself 
loose.
