hmmmmmmmmmm. Just to make sure that ur sprak plugs are getting spark, go out to autozone and pick up an inductive timing light. start the car and the light up to each plug wire one at a time to see if u are getting spark. u can return the timing light after u do this if u dont want to keep it. OR if u dont want to buy a timing light, u can just pull out one spark plug wire at a time and put the end of it close to a metal screw/bolt in the engine bay and crank the car. if u dont see any spark then u have a bad distributor/bad coil.
if u are getting spark, maybe u dont have compression in ur car. once again go down to autozone and pick up a engine compression tester. check the compression for each cylinder to make sure there all within specs of each other.
if that works out fine, then ur probably not getting enough fuel. this means that
1)fuel pump is not working properly
2)fuel filter is probably clogged up which results in u not getting fuel to the engine
i would change the fuel filter 1st and see what happens from there
