In my 63 Dart, the motor will not start. It has a new distributer, the points are set right, it is on the right tooth, it has spark. But it will just crank and crank, it wont even try to start. There is plenty of fuel pressure to the carb, but from the carb, there is just a dribble of gas when I give it gas. I dumped some fuel down the carburetor, but it still does the same thing. Could it be the timing, or what?

need mo info. When was the last time it ran.? Have you checked the valves and valve lash? Is the distributer 180 degrees out. Have you tried static timing it?
