I have a Mazda b2200, it over heated one day pretty bad and I found the the radiator had a hole in it, So I replace that and figures I was good to go, but when I got in the truck to start it all it will do is crank over and not start, It is getting fuel and the spark. I even replace all the plugs thinking it was a spark issue, And the timing is still right. I was driving home from work when it started to overheat bad so I pulled over and saw that it was leaking coolant. I tried to make it home but It was getting to hot, and it stalled out on me, I waited for a while to let it cooldown and added some coolant so I could get it home, after about an hour it started uop and I got it home and pulled in my driveway fine, then I fixed the radiator and it would not start, I am going to do a compression test, I was jus wondering if there is something stupid I might have overlooked.
Thanks.

Please do so by checking the compression and comeback with the readings. If it checks out start by rechecking for spark and fuel.

And the timing is still right. How can you tell this if its not starting up-unless you are referring to static timing.
