Most likely you have a dead fuel pump. Check to see if you have any fuel pressure. Most cars nowdays have a place where you can do this. It will look similar to the top of a tire valve stem only about 3x the size. make sure it is connected to the fuel rail and not the AC. If you don't have one disconnect a fuel and see if you are getting any fuel. also listen for a humm cumming from your gas tank. If you don't get any fuel or it has only weak pressure your fuel pump is bad.
