Hi and thanks for using 2CarPros.
Many things can cause a crank/no start. First, take a look through this link. It discusses the most common causes of this condition.

Next, I would suggest checking for diagnostic trouble codes which will help indicate the component in question. Here is a link that shows how to do it on your vehicle. All you need to perform this test is a jumper wire or even a paper clip.

Now with that in mind, I suggest checking for spark and fuel to the engine. Even though the pump is new, it may not be working or producing enough pressure. Here are links that show in general how to check both:

If there is no spark, my first suspect is the ignition module located in the distributor. Here are the directions for replacing the module:
REMOVAL
1. Remove distributor cap and rotor.
2. Remove pick up coil.
3. Remove two module attaching screws, and lift module up.
4. Disconnect leads from module. Observe color code on leads as these cannot be interchanged.
5. Remove module.
INSTALLATION
NOTE: Be sure there is a sufficient amount of silicone grease on the metal face of the module and on the distributor base (where the module seats), when reinstalling the module. The purpose of the silicone grease is to cool the module.
1. Install module.
2. Connect leads to module.
3. Install module attaching screws.
4. Install pick up coil.
5. Install cap and rotor.
