Default 98 S70 Won't start.. many new parts :(

I have not been driving the car much.. about six weeks or so ago it would not start, so I changed the battery because it was 6 years old anyway.. few weeks later would not start at all, lit up, but when you turned the key NOTHING.. so I had it towed, and the mechanic changed the starter.. about two weeks since then, hop in, and turn the key, lights up, and feels like it "wants" to start, but can't!! Any ideas would be appreciated, hate to get it towed again.

I heard something like that when I disconnected fuel pump fuses to replace fuel filter.

Test for fuel,spark, and injector pulse.
Then take it from there.
