So I have been having this issue with starting my truck, it cranks, and I can smell fuel, it just wont fire over, it used to start after 3rd or 4th time, but now nothing, i replaced plugs, wires, distributor, and rotator, and still nothing before when i could get it started it would stay running and even restart even after sitting for an hour or 2, and ran great
The first thing I would do is check to see if I had good spark coming through the spark plug wires while cranking the engine over. There is still more to the ignition than what you replaced.
It has spark, I have seen the arch, I checked that on both ends of the wire, when I was able to get it started it stayed running, ran great, it only had trouble in the mornings, by the afternoon it would fire right up
