Test the coil according to the FAQ.

How long has it been since a full ignition system tune up was done? If it's been a long time or you don't know, then do one - see FAQs sticky. Hero has a great write up.

Can you do basic diagnostic tests, such as checking for spark at the plugs, listening for whether the fuel pump primes, and checking for CEL codes? Click relevant links in my signature and also browse the FAQs sticky.
