If it cranks good but wont start, have a helper crank it, while you visually check for spark at the spark plugs. If you have spark everywhere, use a gage and check fuel pressure.

Check your security system, where applicable. If you have an injector pulse, engine cranking, the security system shouldnt be an issue.
