Default 88 crx si turns over but no start

so about 3 months ago my friend drove his crx to athens all the way there it did fine. but on the day he went to leave it just shut off on him never to crank again yet at least.
we have tried a another ecu that we know is good. the main relay is good you can hear the fuel pump prime. there is fire. and there is nothing in the intake trak.

he hanst done a compression test yet but i will get him to. also he checked the timing and he says its dead on. any ideas

does the starter engage and rotate the engine?

check for adequate spark

well if you're sure it's getting fuel out the injectors, then the timing is off

injector pulse?
fuel preasure?
Spark at plug(all 4 and check plug gap)?
if fuel and spark is there then timing is off or you have a bad dizzy

its got fuel pressure, its got spark. so it could be the dizy even if there is spark? timing isnt off.
