2.3l ranger will not start even with fuel pressure and spark

Ive tried almost everything besides swapping out my fuel pump. For some reason i think my injectors are not opening?

Have you tried starting fluid, just to see if it's a fuel or ignition problem?

If its a 1983 to 1997 2.3l SOHC Lima engine then check the Timing Belt, these break and/or slip so no compression and no start
Look behind the cover and see if its there and that it turns when cranking engine
