you need 3 things to start an engine, fuel, spark and air. does the turn over but not start? does it make a clicking sound? does it just not make any noise? what is it doin?

... compression check? lolz no good if gas and spark are there is there is no vacum.(no sucking the air/fuel mixture and compressing them to be ignited.)

What is your car doing? Is it not turning over? Is it 5spd? Turning over but not starting?
