Hi,

The first thing I suggest is to scan for diagnostic trouble codes. This vehicle has an OBD1 system which doesn't require a scan tool to retrieve codes.

Here is a link that explains how to get codes:

If this happened all at once, then chances are it isn't getting spark or fuel. Here is a link that explains the most common causes of a crank no start condition. Take a look through it. It explains how to check for spark and fuel to the engine.

Let me know what you find.
