Lancers won't start if the battery is too low, they will crank fine but never spark. the other possibility is fuel... chk back pressure regulator, fuel pump relay and fuel pump.

Yes, you need to set your camshaft end distributor timing to TDC. (top dead centre). now you start vehicle, and adjust your distributor timing to 10% after tdc, on the coast or 8% inland
sounds like fuel pump check valve stuck if you just cycle the key on 8 sec off 10 sec a few times it will start without spraying intake unfortunately they at times will loosen by them selves but not all the time try a fuel cleaner in the gas tank if that dont work you can live with it or replace check valve or pump
you must RUN the SCANNER/computer for better diagnostic and fix it. YOu can have some faulty like: PCM+BCM+ignition coil, sensor, etc. see the diagram attached. God bless you
next time it does this turn ignition to the crank position hold for 10 secounds release to the on position leave it like this for 10 min. try to restart if car starts you needed to reprogram key and ignition if it keeps doing replace both
