Hit it with a shot of starting fluid, if it fires, you don't have fuel
delivery from the injectors, look for a bad fuel pump, I doubt that
a fuel filter would go bad after a trip to the store, so look at the
reason you got a no start engine.
Did you check for fuel pressure? or are you assuming that gas in the
tank is the same as you got fuel? like you said, you got compression
spark and fuel, but have you verified those as fact? If those are fact
the engine would start, so hunt down the problem.

you confirmed you've got compression, knock that one off your list of possibles.
now, verify spark, and fuel.
The fact that you mention the plugs were fuel fouled suggests a fuel or spark issue. either you're no getting spark(obviously or plugs would be dry and it'd probably TRY to start) OR, your injectors are sticking open and flooding it.

Those compression numbers are low, but they are high enough to make it run (and they may come up, once the engine has been ran for awhile (it could be the rings aren't sealing realy good, if it hasn't been ran for a long time).
You have fuel and you have spark, but do you have spark at the correct time? If it is sparking at any time other than on the compression stroke and at 5-10 degrees BTDC, then it isn't going to run.
So you have checked crank to cam timing, and cam to distributor timing, right?
Checked all the fuses? Both in the fuse block and the under hood ones?
Check all the wiring connections and make sure they are plugged together good.
If there is a broken wire or open connection somewhere, it will likely be a bitch to locate. Voltage and continuity checks is probably the only way to find it. Hopefully, it is something easier to find and fix.
