Hi,
In most cases, either fuel or ignition spark is lost. If it does have spark at the plugs, try this. See if it starts using starting fluid. If it does and then stalls, we know it is a fuel-related issue. Even if you hear the pump actuate and there is fuel pressure at the fuel rail, the injectors may not be getting power.
Try this and let me know what you find.
