Engine on my 2001 Ford Escape does not start.

My troubleshooting so far:
1) Checked for spark - spark on all 6
2) Checked compression: 185 psi on 4, 195 on another and 215 on another
3) While doing the compression test did not remove fuel pump relay - there was strong gas smell - so I assume fuel pump is working.
4) Checked all fuses - all are ok


What else should I check?
