Well, you need to determine what is not happening. Spark can be checked by pulling the coil wire from the distributor, and holding the exposed metal end close to a piece of metal on the engine. Have someone tun the engine over, and look for a spark.
Fuel is more difficult for these cars. They do not have a 'test port', so you may have to disconnect a line, and place a cup under the open line. You know you have a problem if no gas flows when you try to start it.
The fuel injectors, you can use a long screwdriver to listen for the ticking of the pintle. Place the blade on the side of the injector, and cup your ear to the handle. The ticking should be heard this way. If no clicking, then the injectors are bad or not getting a signal. Listen to as many as you can to determine if the problem is a few or all.
