From what you're saying, you have a problem in your fuel system. Your engine is not getting gas.
Is your fuel pump coming on when you turn your key to ON?
If not, check your fuse, relay, and inertia safety switch. If they are all good, check for voltage at the pump. If there's voltage at the pump but pump doesn't come on, it's probably bad.

If your pump is working fine, I would take a look at your injectors: do they get a pulse signal from your ecm, do they have voltage?

Start with a fuel pressure test; it will tell you if you have low fuel pressure if any at all.
A low fuel pressure could be the result of a leak somewhere in the fuel lines, a clogged fuel filter, a leaky fuel pressure regulator, leaky injector, or low voltage at the pump.

Come back with what you find out.
