Welcome to the forum, If it cranks good but won't start, have a helper crank it, while you check for spark at the plugs. Pull a plug boot, stick known good plug in the boot, let metal part of plug touch metal part of engine, have helper crank it, watch for spark at the tip of plug. Don't get yourself grounded. If you have spark everywhere, check fuel pressure.
