sometime the butterfly closes and blocks air. try putting a screw driver down it to open it up and try to crank it. it should fire unless theres something else wrong

2nd on the spark and fuel. If you have fuel and no spark is it an HEI. I've had the module crap out before. It won't run.

verify if you have fuel flow. Pump can fail out of the blue, had it happen to me with no prior symptoms.

good luck!
