Did the car start okay before you did the tune-up?

The word 'crank' means spinning ... like the starter motor spins the crankshaft, which moves the pistons.

If the engine is not being spun by the starter, then check the battery, terminals, solenoid and the starter.

Now if the engine does spin with starter, then look for spark, air and fuel and timing.
