Okay so me and my brother recently got a hatch with the stock ka24e in it. the guy we bought it from said the timing was off after he changed the timing chain and thats why it wouldnt start. Took off the valve cover and the chain sprocket wasnt even on the cam right..... we got the timing done, changed spark plug wires and spark plugs and also fuel filter. We have good compression across all four cylinders, checked and had fuel coming through, have good spark and the engine cranks over, But no start???? We're stumped on what to do and thinking about just buying a new engine to put in it. any help please?!

Have you checked the fuses? Look under the hood for the "eng cont" fuse, that guy is a lil bastard
