Nissan 15 / L01 Forklift No Start but Cranks

Hi,
I have an imported Nissan 15 with the K15 Engine. Propane/Gas.

The engine would not start but would crank. It appeared like the plugs were not getting spark, or extremely low spark. I changed the distributor as the solonoid is one of those build in ones. Spark seems fine now, but still will not start on gas or propane.
Kinda lost on where to go now as it seems like it is starved for fuel, but I have plenty of propane in the tank and plenty of gas.
Any help is appreciated.

Fact of the week
In March 2002, identical twins in Finland died on the same day in similar accidents within hours of each other. A 70-year-old man was killed by a truck while cycling; hours later, his twin brother was killed by a truck on the same road, about a mile away, before the family had been informed of the first accident.
