Do you get proper voltage at the coil pack. Check for lose connections something may have worked lose. Good luck!

alright i worked on the truck today, i checked the coil pack while craning no voltage to wither ends of the plug only in the middle, (i was cranking it while i checked it) borrowed a spark plug tester no spark while testing obviously, anyways, took the crank pulley off and one of the lips the the crank sensor reads was all bent to hell, i guess a rock got in there, anyways getting the pulley Saturday, also found out that the timing belt cover was broken off at the bottom so i'm gettign that Saturday too so i can time the crank shaft.

If the crank sensor was broken, that's probably why it wouldn't start.
