Welcome to 2CarPros.

For it to run, it has to have fuel and ignition spark. Also, engine timing must be correct and engine compression must be exist.

Lets start by checking for spark and fuel to the engine. Here are links that will explain how to do both. Additionally, I attached a link that will walk you through the basics regarding a crank no start condition.
