The first thing to check is spark, then fuel, computer and sensors, and finally compression.

If one step checks out, move to the next step. If for example, there's no spark, then you must find out why. Begin with the plugs, wires, coils, computer, etc. Check everything that allows your ignition system to produce a spark, including the crank/cam sensors.

Don't just replace parts. Test them until you find something faulty.
