1996 Toyota Camry

My car wont start at all. I boosted it, and my radio and lights still come on. The car has been sitting in the garage for about a year, but within this year when i would boost it it'll still start. Just recently it wouldn't. I have a new battey and alternator in the car, so im wondering why the car wont start or kick over at all.

Lets check what's missing if its fuel or spark problem

Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine atleast 3/16 away from ground-have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs,coil's resistances,distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it
