quest+AEM+fuel+spark = no start. help?

I know that, but there is absolutely no way for my to tell what mechanical timing is now, lol. I would have to get it running first, and as for timing in AEM, it's whatever the 13_1300map.cal file set it to, which is something pretty low for idle, I think, but like 30 degrees when cranking, I looked at that graph a bit, but I didn't do anything about it.

This is on my g54b engine, not a 4g6x, so it's all goofy and mostly a guess.

edit: oh yeah, I wanted to ask: I know it spins ok, but if there was a problem with the CAS, it probably wouldn't spark, right?
