Default no start zx2

My 2000 ZX2 won,t start. Turns over but not firing up. Fuel pump and injectors working (plugs get soaked). Replaced plug wires and coil pack, checked for spark by pulling #1 plug and grounding .Spark is there but looks a little weak. Any suggestions would be welcome.

Update...checked the timing belt and found that it has slipped due to worn down teeth on the belt causing the timing to be way out. Next step is to replace belt.
