You say it is getting fuel and has strong spark at coil, but what about at
plugs? Have you checked distributor cap or rotor?

Possible slipped timing belt, but how do you know it's getting fuel?

If the spark is weak at plugs, change the spark plugs and wires. Also check if
your timing belt is ok, through the inspection hole.

Hit the intake with some starting ether-if it tries to run on it-then yer
problem is fuel delivery.
