You might also want to verify that the Crank Angle Sensor is set correctly. This would trash your timing and the engine would never start. Check the FSM for the procedure on accomplishing this task, or run a search on stabbing the CAS.

I wouldn't worry about the CAS yet, maybe later. But, unless you have messed with the timing, it won't go out by itself.
I would pull the plugs and see if they are dry or wet.
If dry, try spraying some starting fluid in to the intake and see what happens. If it starts for just a second or two, you have a no fuel problem.
If wet, search "flooding" and try the unflooding procedure.
