    Yank the fuel line and make sure you have good fuel pressure. If you have good fuel, spark and timing is right there shouldn't be a reason for it to not start back up. Like stated above check the EFI relay, also check the EFI fuse in the fuse box. Not sure if its labelled EFI or just ENGINE.

    I would first listen for the fuel pump. Check to see if the inertia button has popped.... If it did reset . If all else fails check for power at your EFI main relay ( yellow 5 pin plug) Probe the yellow/blue wire to see if you have 12v as it controls fuel and spark and without that you have nothing...

Watch the plug to spark to the block, while holding a finger close to where the plug came out of the cylinder head. You should get a wet finger from the fuel spurting out and see spark from the plug. A lack of either will help narrow down the next step....
    Yeah, that.

    New filter could be plugged again. If you can, run pressure through it backwards into some container to clean it out. Works with new filters, not so much with old.

    Turns out they were already getting power. Now I got it started with the button and it ran a little bit, but the idle was too low, and I had to rev it to keep it going. It was turned off, gas was added, and then it refused to ever start again. How do I set the idle (Pics PLEASE) and what do you think the issue is now?

    Edit- It has a new fuel filter now, too.

    I am cranking it with a button. There's no ignition switch, lol. New timing belt on it, too. Just added gas. Filter is clogged, but I have a new one for it I'll be adding asap.

    Then it wouldn't crank. Its between +12v on the battery and the positive side of the starter solenoid.
    It was a joke- Try the "EASY" button next.

    I'm guna take a wild guess here and say you have a switch hooked up to crank the engine but you have nothing hooked up for power to the ecu,injectors,disty etc.

    Alright, I'll hotwire the ignition first, then. I figured it would crank without it...
