A engine needs to be in good health and then supplied fuel and a spark from a ignition system to start and run.You need to determine what's missing,that caused yours to stop.There is so many things that could have happened,need more info to help.
Can you hear the fuel pump when cranking the engine over?Have you pulled the sparkplugs to see if 1 or more plugs looks funny.Stick your finger in each hole and have someone turn the car over to see if you have compression,your finger should be blown back away from the hole.This also confirms the timing chain did not break.Placing a screwdriver on a injector and listen while someone turns the car over,can you hear the injector snap open and close?This confirms the efi system is woking,ect,ect.
When can you hear the relay click,when you turn the ignition switch to start?
Have you taken a hammer and hit the bottom of the fuel tank yet to jar a fuel pump into starting?I could go on and on,but i need more info from you to do any more to help you.
