Just to add in a couple suggestions, check your kill switch, Check your fuel line coming from the tank, Pop off the quick disconnect and plug it back in. Also try pulling the main fuse and leave it out for 30 seconds and plug it back in.

Update us on what your outcome is.

Talking about the small wires going into the coil. Can you use you PV to turn off your compression releases?

Ok took out fuse and waited 30 secs
No go
Disconnect quick disconnect fuel line
No gas dripped out at all, this is strange since typically when I take it off I get some fuel on my rag

Manual CRs
See post above leaning towards no gas now

Is it possible on the 09's to check spark by holding the plug to the head?

I thought about that but I thought I read somewhere on here that the fule pump would run continously if that was the case. Anyone know if that is true or not? When I turn on the ignition I here the pump turn on for a few seconds and then go off.

just for giggles, did you plug the quick-disconnect back in and crank it? I thought I heard about just doing that on another thread.
