Fuses

Always easiest first, fuses

run fault codes and check for cam/crank position sensor. Check that the cam shaft is turning ( broken timing belt0 After changing the battery you should use a code reader to reset the CPU as the program may be corrupted and the Immobiliser is stopping it from starting.

be looking at fuses yes and check cooling system for all to be working..fans .. thermostat.. etc

spark plug cable or the ignition coil ,,,, try the first one. also try filling up 8 oz. of injection fuel cleaner full at your tank (7bucks) and let your car run few minutes. i hope it wasnt your fuel filter (20 bucks)clooge-up neither fuel pump.

Could be your timing jumped,belt has wore out and some teeth probaly are gone on belt,need to remove timing belt cover to check condition of belt and the timing marks.When was the last time the belt was replaced?Car is almost 20 years old,here's a link on how to check.Here's how to replace the belt.

What you need to do is make sure the key is off, remove glow plugs, hook a set of jumper leads to your battry, put the negative lead around the threaded part of the plug, hold the + jumper lead to the top of the plug where the power rail bolts on. DO NOT TOUCH glow plugs as they will heat up hot & fast. If the light comes on 6 - 8 sec thats how long you need to hold the power on. The tip of the plug should be nice & red hot in this time. Repeat for all plugs & see the diffrence If more than 2 are dead (no red heat) or noticably slower than the others It will be very difficult to start & the plugs should be replaced. AGAIN carefull not to get burned.

well its the handle on the left side you should just pull on it.
