Does the engine attempt to start at all? Did this problem happen suddenly, over time start acting weird, or after recent repairs. Is the anti theft light coming on in the dash?, Should come on for a couple seconds when you first turn key on then go out.

Yes tryies to start and it was taken. Few times to start it i went to a friends shut it off then went to leave now it run i check timing fuel and spark

If the motor turns over but won't start, try to beat on the bottom of the fuel tank while someone's trying to start the engine, even though your getting some fuel might not be enough, sometimes you can jar the fuel pump and it'll work
