God help me 94 camry wont start

I got a 94 camry that ran fine. one day it just quit. It was running great, I turned it off then it wouldn't start. I checked the spark and everything was good. havent had time to check cap/rotor. I will do that tomorrow. I am thinking it is somthing fuel pump related. since engine mechanical issues would not just happen overnight. the ignition switch is good i know that for sure. battery is good becauase the engine will turn over easily. spark is good. I am a corolla guy, however the engine in the camry is similar and I am ashamed I cant figure it out. (well it's late and I don't have the time to test electrical). any ideas?

fuses=good
spark=good
fuel rail=connected
battery=good charge
alternator=obviously good
cap/rotor=not checked yet
fuel pump=pending
Ignition switch=good
relays=all good
plug wires=fucked up, but good
ecu=good
Ignitor=not checked yet

My friend has this car and its his son's girlfriends car. I want to help fix it but it's late in my time zone. and I needa go ta bed. any help would be appreciated, fellow yota lovers.





f'in greatly appreciated

A quick check to determine if the car is getting fuel is to remove the large tube leading to the throttle body and spray some carb cleaner in there. Now put the tube back on and try and start the car. If it now sputters a bit where it didn't before, you have identified a fuel delivery problem.

If you're sure your spark is good (check the coil) and your fuel is good, next I would check the timing. Your belt may have slipped. Either way, change them bad plug wires, they're not helping.
