Last time I had that problem it was the distributor... The reluctor to stator gap got out of allignment and I had to bend it back into place.

Other then that just check the fuses and wires to the distributor and the spark plug wires.

Make sure that your ground on the battery did not fall off. I have seen where people don't properly tighten it down and it falls off due to vibration or short on the hood and get the check engine light since it blew a fuse.

Did you check your ECU? Or do you even have power anywhere?

Check all your fuses and look under the seat (driver) flip the plastic cover and watch for a LED to blink (car turned on) count the blinks and check the faq section.
