Noticed something in one of your previous photos that may responsible for your no start. The black wire with the bare terminal circled should be plugged in the the connector below it. The wire is your Cylinder Head Temp sensor. When disconnected it puts the mixture in a full rich state making starting almost impossible. Can be easily knocked loose when working near cylinder 3. Another thing you will want to address in the near future is that leaky #4 injector(dampness around the body). Could be an engine fire waiting to happen.

Someone with better eyes often spots something important. |
