Question No check engine light in on position

Help me guys!!!! I have a 95 GS300, that`s not starting. All the basics have been done plug,wires,dist.cap ,rotor. It`s getting volts to the injectors,spark,fuel at the rail, but no start. i drained the fuel tank, gas did look merky. Ican hear the fuel constantly flowing at the regulator when in the on position "not engine running" . Could that be a bad fuel regulator.Also the CHECK ENGINE LIGHT does not illuminate when in the on position...is that normal. One guy told me that if the check engine light don`t come on in the on position before starting...the ECU did`nt power up. You know when trying to fix a car lots of people have theories

did the car ever run before under your ownership? Is the engine rotating when you crank it or its completely dead?

Yes it ran....the last it ran it was hard to start, I had to to hold the key for a while. Right now it just turns cranks. I also took the exhaust manifold a loose just in case of a clogged catalytic converter. I checked ALL fuses and relays.....I`m stuck

Have you looked at the timing with the distributor?
