Is the starter engaging or is nothing happening? If it is engaging, have you checked to see if there is fuel to the engine as well as spark to the plugs?

Okay... The no spark is the issue. However, it could be a few things, crank sensor, coil... What I would suggest is to have the starter replaced so you can crank the engine and start checking things. You won't be able to check for spark if you have to bump it to crank the engine.
