my car won't start HELP!!!!
my 1st time ever.
I backed the car out the garage and shut it off. About an hr. later I go to take it for a ride and it won't crank. It turns over but doesn't fire. This is what I checked: all fuses - good all relays - good pulled a coil - got spark pulled an injector wire - got power check fuel pressure - ~45psi looked into the oil fill hole - valve train moves fuel pump reset button - not tripped PATS - theft light not going crazy tune - reflased a tune, no changes WTF can it be?? |
dead battery? does it click or does the turn over seem faint?
|
sounds like a dead battery to me
|
it cranks fine, not even weak at all, just doesn't fire up. BTW I have no codes either.
I did put the battery on a charger since I was cranking on it for a while, even though it is turning over just fine. |
But you do have fuel at the rail? If you have a strong crank (and spark) and it just won't fire, it sounds like fuel. Oh and normally went PATS is acting up, nothing happens when you turn the key.

Gummed up fuel injectors?
|
here is why I'm confused... it has run perfect, never misfire, sputter or hesitation. It fired right up this morning, now it won't start. I'd understand if it would fire up but run like crap, then I'd say it may be an injector, spark plug or something like this. My gut tells me it's electrical... but what could it be?
