If you have spark and fuel and it back fires hen check the distributor cap and rotor for damage/cracks. And if it's not that then it may be a timing chain problem. Also check te compression, if all cylinders are low then it's probably the timing chain. They would all be about 75 pounds or so if the chain has jumped.
