Not spark plugs, not ignition coil, could be starter/solenoid, also could be bad connection to battery. Check the connections for corrosion. If there is excessive corrosion, that could cause a failure to start. Clean off corrosion with a wire brush. Auto parts stores sell battery post and connector cleaning tools relatively inexpensively.
