I saw what you replaced, not sure what testing you've done? Make sure battery has a full charge and connections all good. Have a helper crank it while you check for spark at the plugs. If spark everywhere, use a gage and check proper fuel pressure and check fuel injector pulse. Any applicable trouble codes? Those are the basic checks, in my opinion.
