Answer
Tony,

Check for spark by pulling a plug wire and getting a paper clip and inserting it in the end of the boot and then hold the other end close to the block to check for spark.  If it has spark check for gas by getting a fuel pressure gauge.  If it has gas pressure check to see if the engine has jumped timing by pulling number 1 plug and spinning the engine over until a burst of air comes out of the cylinder.  Hold you finger over the hole.  It should be one of the three things above.  Email me back if you need more.
