I could be a number of things. Have up check the compression? After that, recheck the timing. I had the same problem right after I replaced the timing belt, the engine would turn over but won't start. Turns out I set the camshaft to the wrong timing mark.

4th Generation

So, when you mean it won't fire up, you mean it's turning over, just not starting, right? You said the timing was right on. Was about the crank position sensor, did it get hooked back up, any wire split, etc? Are you getting spark, etc. More details......

4th Generation

It should be under the distributor cap on the 93 5SFE.

http://www.utoyot8.com/FullImage.asp...9508)5SFE..NAP

It is part number 19500B (COIL ASSY, IGNITION, **919-02163) in the picture. I did the search on the 93 Camry Sedan 5SFE, NAP (North American Product) made. If yours starts with a J in the VIN number, it was made in Japan versus U.S. Verify the model, US made, etc. But it will give you an idea where it is.

Hope this helps,
