I saw what you replaced, what testing have you done? Make sure battery has a full charge and battery connections all good. Have helper crank it while you visually check for spark at the plugs. If you have spark everywhere, use a gage and check proper fuel pressure. Check fuel injector pulse. Check applicable trouble codes? Those are the basic checks, in my opinion. I don't know model year of your vehicle?
