first we need pics of your machine, you may be asking for a friend

need details, such as miles, mods, what have you done to it lately....

just won't start out of the blue?, sitting a while, forum has no clue

need some basic info other than parts changing...

When did the problem start? ie..running fine then quit? Sat for a few days & now won't start? etc....
Do you hear the fuel pump run when you turn on the key? Ironically, if the injector doesn't fire(pulse) you won't have spark either.
Have you checked for power at the coil? Like with a test light or volt meter

Has 768 miles, only mod is bigger tires and light bar. It was driving and the trottle cable sized up so stop driving it and replaced cable and now won’t start with no spark.

You probably knocked a connector loose, check the connectors on the injector/throttle body. If the injector isn't plugged in you won't have spark. I found this out by accident fixing a neighbors P5 after he swamped it.

Motor has great compression. Yes I’ve check the power of coil. How many volts should be coming out do the coil?
