Default automatic ford escort cranks no start??!!

Hi guys,morning to all.I have a mk2 escort,auto transmission
My problem is it cranks strong but refuses to start.
Carb is gettin fuel,there is a spark at the plugs.
New distrib cap,rotor,points,condensor,plug leads,plugs and new
Ignition coil.Thers new fuel filter also.
Timing has been checked and double checked.
The car refuses to fire up,it just cranks away.
I've ran a 12v wire direct to coil and chuked sum fuel direct down the carb,still no go.
I am absolutely stumped,its drivin me nuts.
I've even replaced the old parts one by one,still nothin.
Any suggestions pls?
