1998 GMC Sonoma 4 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic

my sonoma doesn't start and we believe that the problem is that the timing chain has slipped. There is no distributer (not for this year) and the computer port doesn't work (not since I've owned it). So how do I determine if the timing is off without taking the entire engine apart. Note. I've got spark, fuel and compression. So this is what I've narrowed it down to.

I'll have to get back to you on that as some one else did the compression test so I don't recall the numbers.
I will quickly though.

Thanx
