You say you had “wet plugs”.
If you haven’t already, replace them, don’t clean them...replace ‘em.
With spark and gas...you should be getting something out of that motor when cranking.
You’re not relying on the fuel gauge to tell you when to fuel up are you?
Check the quick disconnect fuel lines.

When you turn Ignition to on the fuel pump should run for 2 seconds.
Don't need a code reader: Hold odometer button down on left hand controls and turn the ignition on or to accessory

Well, if you have "Spark, Compression and Fuel" and it won't start it must be out of time. Ignition not happening at the right time. Crank sensor, cam timing jumped. A back fire through the intake indicates a lean mixture or a valve open when it shouldn't be.

I hardly think your spark test is valid.
