    Can you hear your fuel pump running? Sounds like you need to have a shop run a diagnostic on it....

    Have someone turn the key on while you listen at the gas tank for the sound of the fuel pump.
    If ya hear the fuel pump running, then check for spark at the spark plugs/coil pack when cranking engine.
