Default Got a slight problem

Hey, my name is Nial and im new to this forum, im hoping to have a good experience and get knowledge from all you Z lovers.

Here is my story, about 3 months ago the stealership ruined my engine, i toke my ride for my 53k service instead of replacing my engine oil with oil for the 350z he put the nissan tidda oil the normal one and it wasnt the right amount, 2k miles later my engine blew
Note: the stealership assumed no responsibility as always.

Now here is my problem:

I recently got a new engine driven only 13k miles, the engine is perfect however now when the garage wants to start it the spark plugs dont produce any sparks (no power to the plugs) does anyone have any ideas of what this problem might be? And how to solve it?
Please this is the only thing in the way of me getting my car back :/

Does the car crank?
Are you getting fuel pressure?
Did you remove each plug+spark and test them individually?
Battery Voltage?

I dont know what is the procedure for testing if you ECU/PCM is sending signal to injectors.

But you can start here:

So if you new they didn't put enough oil in it why didn't you go back and have them fill it instead of driving for 2k miles?
