How long did you run the engine with no oil? was there any unusual noises? do you have a check light on? can you get a scan done?

OK, you will have to start with checking for spark, fuel pressure, injection pulse, check comps as well, i am presuming that the engine will still crank over on the key? i would also get a scan just to see what the fault code is, this may be important as well.
