Long story short, it just keeps turning over but will not start. I put in a new gas tank, fuel pump, changed plugs/wires/cap and rotor. I know the engines getting gas, spark and air so why won't it start?

It has to be done with a scanner.
You can adjust this distributor, but there are no
timing marks to watch as you move it. There is a timing
mark on the balancer and on the timing cover for
referencing Top Dead Center #1 cylinder only, but it is only
used for dropping the distributor in to get the engine up and
running. A scanner is needed to properly adjust the timing.
Connect the scanner and look for a data parameter labeled
‘cam offset’ or possibly ‘cam retard.’ It will be listed in
degrees. Start the engine, and bring it up to 1500 rpm. Note the
reading. If the timing specification is not within plus or minus
two degrees of zero, you need to move the distributor.
You can move the distributor with the engine running but the
timing will not change. After you move the distributor, the
ignition has to be cycled off to let the computer learn the new
timing spec. Restart the engine, bring it up to 1500 rpm and see
what the new spec is. You must repeat this procedure until you
get the timing into the specification as mentioned above. Once
you have it set to spec, the code should clear.

The timing is NOT adjustable. The distributor cannot be turned. Check the underhood decal. The ECM (engine control module) gets a pulse from the crank angle sensor which is also not adjustable.

The chance is that the incorrect fluid would assault your oil seals and intent a leak. Drain out oil COLD, then set up low cost recent oil. Run engine to complete hot, and do a SECOND difference utilising a brand new oil filter out. you acquired it!!! You are consistently high-quality off utilising a whole artificial within the moment oil difference.

Go to the library and look up your pickup in a Chilton's Manual. It will tell you how and what tools are required.

Buy a timing light and follow the directions that come with it.
