do you have gas? sorry, had to ask, don't rely on the gauge, it happens.
The first rule of c900 trouble shooting is check all vacuum lines are plugged in, not split or cracked, and then check it again...
Next to check spark, get a can of carb cleaner, use the plastic straw attachment, pull a vacuum line on the intake plenum (big silver thing that the OIL dipstick is mounted on) put the straw into the open hole, spray to a count of four or five, replace the vacuum line, crank... does it cough and act like it will start? If so you most likely have spark. Unless you are *certain* you have at least a half tank of gas... consider putting a five gallon can of gas in and then try to start.
If this doesn't work then consider that the fuel pump has stopped working. Do a search for Ari and fuel pump, he has written several times an excellent trouble shooting guide on this. Check it out and give it a go.
Let us know if you are still broken after that.
