   Some information is missing here.   
   What year car is this?   
   If you pull a plug, do you get a nice spark on it?   
   If not and you connect the plug to the coil, do you get a nice spark on it?   
      
   Is there good pressure at the fuel rail?  If you disconnect the line to the   
   rail does fuel go spraying out?   
      
   Are the injectors coming on?  Can you hear them when the engine is turned   
   over and/or will they light a noid light?   
      
   If the noid light does not illuminate and there is no spark at the plug,   
   it's time to look at the inputs to the computer.  If the TDC sensor doesn't   
   work, the computer won't know to spark or squirt.  But what you do at that   
   point depends a lot on how old it is.
