does it crank..and not start? See if you have spark by by plugging in one of the plugs and resting it on the top of the engine so the metal on the outside of the plug is touching the engine, then crank it over. You should see the plug spark.

Your plugs were 'gone'? As in all 4 plugs catastrophically failed at the same time?

When was the last time you changed the plugs? if they didn't all go boom at the same time and its been a while since the last time you changed them (or if you've never changed them), they coulda been holding on by a prayer till they gave up the ghost
