96 civic wouldn't start even after setting TDC and new spark plugs. Got a new head with new head gasket as well but car still not starting. Getting a compression test in the next few days. Any idea would help. Thanks!

Air, fuel, spark, timing, or compression.

Can only be any of those five stopping it.

Yeah pull a plug and crank do you have spark?
Spray some starter fluid into the throttle body, what happens?
Does it have compression?
