You will need to diagnosis whether it is spark or fuel. After you crank it, check the plugs to see if they are wet with gas, if they are you have fuel. If there is no spark you will need to check the ignition system (battery, plugs, plug wires, distributor, distributor cap and rotor). You may want to buy a repair book (usually about $14) and go through the checking for each component. If you start replacing parts, that can get expensive and very frustrating.
Good luck.
