    have you actually checked to see if it has spark? it could be a number of things.. Start with checking it has a good strong spark..

    Most common electrical problems:
    . fuses and relays (easy and cheap to replace)
    . Battery (if your engine isn't turning over)
    . Ignition module (easy to replace, but relatively expensive).
    . Coil (hard to replace, but relatively cheap)
    . Hall-effect sensor in distributor (hard to replace, don't know how much)
