Put new gas in with a gas can. If u crank for a while and get nothing, make sure your fuel pump is working. Listen for a hum when u turn the key. Take off fuel cap and listen while someone turns the key. Or remove gas line and crank over engine to see if u have pressure. If u have fuel, check for spark. You may have bad coil. Lastly, your timing belt could have let go. Remove distributor cap and see if rotor turns when you hit the key. If not, your timing belt is broken..
