Not enough information provided to help you, Assuming you have good compression and you have fuel I would suspect DME relay or speed and reference sensors. If those check out then the ECU could be at fault.

Clark's garage has an article on ignition troubleshooting. That might be a good place to start

Tach bounce? Can you hear the fuel pump?
