Hi,

What about the timing belt? It probably jumping timing if you didn’t adjust it or at least inspect it.
No telling how long it ran on the belt before it sat.

Look through the valve cover to see the cam and if it is turning.
No turning means no distributor and no spark.
On number one cylinder and top dead center compression stroke the lobes have to be pointing upwards like a dog’s ears.
