Default 1997 626 won't start

Hi my 97 626 2.5 v6 wont start. I just replaced the head gaskets and timing belt and put the engine back together. Now the engine wont start, It will just turn over, It is getting a spark but the fuel pump isn't turning on. When i jumped the fuel pump using the diagnostic box in the engine compartment it turned on but the engine still wouldn't start. does anyone know what the problem might be?

thanks
-Brock

i would check the valve timing again..you have to be dead nuts on all the cam and crank alignment marks with the crank at TDC and cylinder one on TDC....if the fp isnt turning on check the collision switch in the rear passemger compartment...1st check for 12 volts to the pump

I have checked the cam and crank alignments multiple times and they are all dead on, Also I was told by someone that the 97 didn't have a collision switch, if it does where exactly is it? and do you know where I can check the voltage going to the fuel pump, I'm not sure which wire in the engine compartment is the one for it.
