Check to see if it's getting fuel and fire. If there's no fuel pressure, it could be clogged line, bad gas, malfunctioning fuel pump, or fuel regulator. If there's no fire, could be plugs, wires, distributor/coil packs, coil, crank sensor, or timing belt. If there's both fuel and fire, could be the MAFS or dirty intake.
