The car turns over - so it's not the battery
There is spark to at leas one of the plugs.
I don't know the last time the car was tuned up and had the fuel filter replaced. If it is fuel starvation, could the fuel filter cause the problem with no notice?

Thank you.

Most likely u probably have a bad fuel pump I would start by checking ur fuel pressure should be around 50psi. This may sound funny but u can also have some crank the car over while it is in park with the emergency brake on while u hit the tank with a hammer turned sideways non claw ball pen or preferable a dead blow soft faced one filled lead shot and if it starts up or begins to run and did before then bad fuel pump. Have no fear I have done this more times then I can count. Let me know how it goes. Hope this helps donations and feedback greatly appreachated.
