Re: Trying to turn over, but she just doesn't go.
Time for compression, did you remove the timing belt cover to see if the cams are spinning? If they are than i would do a compression test, someone on here should have one you can borrow, i have one but i can never find the damn thing. From me leaving it at either the garage or pole barn in between lending it to Febo, i almost never know where it is till i randomly run into it.
Did you check the pressure when turning the car over? You should get TONS of fuel coming out when you crank it over. There will almost always be some residual fuel in the line. I've had trouble explaining that to TONS of people in the past, just cause gas is there doesn't mean the fuel pump is ok. It should spray all over the place just like a kid does when you go to change them. Should get gas on the fire wall, all the hoses, and even for a quick crank should get a damn nice puddle on the ground.
Beyond that... I wouldn't know exactly where to go till those questions are answered.
So to re-cap:
1.) Tons of fuel coming out?
2.) Spark on all 4 plug wires?
3.) Timing gear spinning when you crank it over?
4.) If you have a plug out, and crank it over, does it push air out of the spark plug hole? Good thing to test while checking spark as well. Lets you know the piston is at least moving up and down.
Another thing i thought of, how far can the timing jump on these cars before contacting the pistons? I think if it goes far enough to prevent the car from starting the damage to the valve train is already done.
