Assume no check engine light was on? Need to determine if you have lost fuel or ignition. Pull a plug wire hold next to block crank fire? If good spray some carb cleaner in intake start for sec?
Let me know

Test the airflow meter and the circuit opening relay- the COR powers the fuel pump when the AF meter grounds the relay-
