Help! 97 F-150 4.6L truck won't start!

Truck was running okay... but decided on a "tune up" since the odometer is stuck at 216K miles since I bought it last May. Also removed AC Compressor and installed bypass pully since the compressor was locked up and making a terrible noise.

Changed the plugs and wires, checked 3 times to make sure the wires are routed according to all the diagrams I could find. What else could possibly be wrong? It's turning over, but just won't start. The old plugs were ground down to nothing, so I would hate to re-install them.

Welcome to the forum. Did you have any luck? Is the fuel pump coming on when you turn the key on?

We have determined that we messed up the crank sensor wiring when removing the AC Compressor and will be replacing that today. Thanks for the welcome!
