yeah...check your sparks...take out spark plug wire, you have to use spark plug socket to get it out and check for engine oil if any on the spark plug, if all is well by means of no oil, good, if it is crusty, it is time for new sparks...if that's not the case, my second guess would be starter....get a replacement, it it still doesn't work after all these options, i would think it could have been also the distrubutor cap that ignites the sparks when you turn the key....it is basically the cap that the spark plug wires plug into on the right hand side of the engine bay (if you're standing right in front of the car looking down into your engine)..., also one last thing, it could be as easy as your battery...this is from my experience dealing with factors why the car won't start....hope this helps...
