Process of elimination. start with the easiest thing to check/replace and work your way up. thats what i had to do to mine. wound up needing a new ignition controle module

but that is another common issue when a fox wont start. easy to check. if you turn the key and you hear the fuel pump kick on then the relay is fine.

My bad I did a quick read but hey without fuel u have no bang without the spark... So unless he is for sure he does not have spark it could be that the fuel pump is not engaging due to a bad fuel pump relay...I was just throwing a bone it's quick and easy to check out bro...
