hi,
thanks for your help.
no problems with fuel pressure.
the engine seems to have no pressure although everything is new above block, new sparks.

Well, you need air, fuel, compression, and sparks at the right time. All these are easily tested, and even If you have no fuel, it'll still run on ether. Getting the timing right is not totally trivial of course, but it's also not mysterious.
