So you have no spark?If so the first thing i would check is the crankshaft position sensor.DO you have a multimeter to do some testing?

if you have a distributor it 's a hall effect switch if not it's a crank and cam sensor which goes to pcm and pcm tells coil when to fire from crank sensor position.
