How did you check spark?
Pull the rotor and see if there is a black pin mark underneath. If there is, you blew through the rotor.
Check the fuel pump relay.
The system uses the fuel pump relay to energize the fuel pump until oil pressure comes up.
I would lean more toward a fuel pump relay from experience.6
