Replaced oil pump. Wont start now didnt do anything else. I checked the timing. Spark. Fuel. Compression. All checked out fine truvk ran great when parked. Only took a week to get the pump so I had the battery out for the week it was on trickle charge till I replaced the pump then now it just cranks but wont start. Any ideas anyone?

It's not a complete pic but looks like overhead cam. Check compression on all cylinders.

If there is a lot of slop in it I imagine so. Hopefully it didn't damage anything in motor. That is an interference motor so check for bent valves.
