First pull off a spark plug lead (at the spark plug end) and see if you have a spark. If you have a good spark here, the problem lies elsewhere (fuel pump etc). Then have a look at this thread, especially the second post:

The coil is hidden under the intake manifold and is a bit of a pain to get to.
