    . Test all under hood and under dash fuses with a test light or multimeter:

    . Check for codes.

    . Check for spark. Perform the standard spark test; i.e. remove a spark plug wire and attach it to a properly gapped spark plug, touch the plug to a convenient ground, and observe the spark, while someone cranks the engine. Look for a good, solid spark. If none, I would check for power to the distributor (if none, check the ignition switch), replace the coil and Ignition Control Module (ICM). I recommend replacing coils and ICMs every 120,000 miles or 10 years, whichever comes first.

    . Check for fuel. Can you hear the fuel pump in the gas tank run, when the ignition switch is turned to ON? Replace fuel filter, if it hasn't been done in the last 30,000 miles.

    My gut is that the coil and/or ICM is bad.

    See if it has a CEL with KOEO. Report back.
