I'd start by checking your engine for codes. Instead of going from plugs take the wire that leads from your ignition coil to your distributor and remove the end that goes into your distributor. Now take that end and hold it
very near a grounding point. Don't make direct contact. Have somebody try to turn the engine over and watch for a spark to bridge the small gap between the ignition coil wire and ground point. If you have no luck with that then move to your ignition relay under the hood and inspect the ignition fuse in your drivers side kick panel. An easy way to check the relay (mind you it IS NOT the smart way as it can be bad for the relay and blow it on rare occasion) is to leave the ignition on ACC and slowly remove and insert the relay. 9/10 times if you hear an audible click from the relay engaging then it's alright. If you have no luck with either relay or fuse then give an update.
