It is either out of time, or you have one or more plug wires hooked to the wrong plug. If you did not move the distributor then you have the wires wrong.

If a 1996 Isuzu Oasis 22 does not have fire to the plugs after changing the timing belt, perhaps a spark plug wire got crossed when hooking up the spark plug wires. Check the coil to make sure the right firing order is being used. Check to make sure the distributor did not accidentally get turned when changing the distributor cap. Also, check the wires to the distributor.
