Default New guy needs help 95 Accord wont start!

I have a whole slew of problems with my 95 Accord. First things first i can not get it started. At first the vehicle would not turn over so i replaced the starter, Autozone gave me the wrong one. It started but the long grinding noise made me shut it off and look up the part number. I replaced it with the correct starter it now turns over but will not start.

It has good spark, cap, roter, plugs all fine. I do have leaking valve cover gasket and gromits the wells on top of the plugs are oiley so this may be the cause. but i cant imagine that it would not start with a little oil on top of 2 of the four plugs. I am replacing the cover seals and gromits.
I replaced the main relay.
All the fuses are fine.
I can hear the fuel pump kick on. I was told that i might need to check the fuel pressure? Im looking into how thats done.

Im at a loss other wise and not sure what else it could be. Any advice would be good. Good advice would be great.

welcome to the forum. Check your timing, belt may have slipped a notch if you have not done a belt change for a while. Also are the spark plugs less than 100k. and wires in good condition.

I agree,if you have fuel and spark,it must be the timing.

My friend did the timing when he replaced the main output seal on the crank shaft no more then 40k miles ago. I am replacing the the plugs/wires while im in their. I plan also to do a full valve cover seal job including the lower gromits. But not looking forward to pulling the timing belt back off to get to the cam/rockers.

I figure thats why im getting oil on top of my plugs and wires.

I have a haines manual but having never done the timing my self im nervous. Any tips?
