Do below and give me some results

Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine -have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs,coil's resistances,distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors- Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it

got plenty of spark,but i can`t exactly qualify it as blue,i`m all for it being a fuel problem but it seems counter intuitive since i have lots and lots of fuel at the flow regulator bothsides,is it possible all 4 injectors clogged at same time

Check the fuel pressure with a gauge and also check for injection pulses
