Is the car efi?

 

If it is then i would say its fuel presure. I had an issue with mine not starting and turned out to be the bit that connects the pump and sender, as sill had split. So i was getting fuel up to the rail just not at enough pressure

If you have spark but no fuel i would say the injectors are not firing check that the black wire going to all the injectors is 12v live as this supply is given to not only them but all the other engine sensors as the ecu only earths the injectors but the coil runs off its own live supply so this is why you can have a spark but no fuel could be summit a simple as a fuse or broken supply wire to all the sensors, inform her in doors great things only come through trials and tribulations.
