Exclamation No spark, has fuel, please help!!

Hello out there in rover land. First time poster here. I have an issue that I cant seem to beat.
I have a 99 discovery sd. It just stopped running one day. towed it home it home, and started tinkering. Pressed the valve on the rail to see if I had fuel. No fuel. So here is a list of things I have replaced in the last month, and still not running. Fuel pump, and filter ( now i do have fuel at the valve on the rail) crank sensor and camshaft sensor, and battery. The engine turns over like it wants to fire, but nothing. pulled a plug to check for spark, and nothing. I am at wits end. Can anyone offer some help.
Thanks, MIke

Why are you guessing? I hope you kept most of those parts you took off cause they are probably still good.
Do you have a D1 or D2, how many miles on it and what about fault codes?

OK, you need to start over and get your codes read at a local parts store/free, then get back to us with the 4 digit fault code numbers.

misfires galore!!!

when was the last time the plugs and wires were changed, what brand and size wires were used? you need to check if they were routed correctly and are in the correct firing order.

It had not had one issue until it stopped running. No missfire no rough running.

Don't understand you last reply. How old are the codes you posted, if more then a day or two, you need to go get them cleared and re-read when it comes back.
When was it last tuned, with wires and who's were used?
