Default No start

So finally got most of my vacuum hoses back connected, I know fuel is going through the lines(took it off and saw fuel shooting out) but still no start. It cranks really fast(not sure if that's a Lexus thing or not) but yea it sounds like its spinning faster than it should be. I have about 5 gal in the tank but the gauge will only move a little bit still reads below E. Any suggestions?

Assuming you have fuel to the injectors, how about spark?

Also, why only "most" of the vacuum hoses?

There's too much missing from this picture for people to help very well, I'm afraid.

When I gotnit there was like no vacuum hoses so as far as i know everything is back on except the hose that goes to the air intake which i have plugged, if the torrential downpour stops at some point I can check spark

And always give what year it is, if you had posted before we will still not remember it all. And if you posted this same problem before then continue with that post don't keep adding more posts on the same deal, we need to remember stuff that was posted before if that is the case.
You have to tell us if the starter is turning the engine?
Is this the one where the mice chewed holes in the pistons?

No this is my first thread about it, year is 93. I finally got around to checking spark today, looks like on the passenger side dizzy is doing its job, have to run to daycare and drip off daughter so later I'll pull the dizzy and check if rotor is spinning. Zeroing down on my issie, will update later
