Toyota Celica Spark Problem

1994 Celica GTS (2.2l).... the fuel pump is working and it has spark but it just won't start. It keeps turning over but it doesn't want to start. This happened suddenly and gave no warning of poor performance, so I don't know what to think. I just changed the plugs today but that didn't change anything. Timing is off?

Check the engine compression. Ensure the sparks are bright blue. Try some starting fluid into the throttle.
