Firstly, get the battery fully charged, if it is more than a few years old get a new one.
Check the leads to the battery, body, engine and starter, clean if dirty.
If the engine is still sluggish to turn over, turn headlights on and try again. Dim lights = duff battery, bright lights = duff starter.
Check for ignition spark by removing sparkplug connect lead and place on rocker cover, crank engine and look for spark.
Fuel pressure, crack off one injector line at fuel distributor head, there should be plenty of residual pressure (careful of ignition sources).
