Huh...

Well, it isnt getting proper spark, proper fuel, or the timing is off. If it turns over...it couldn't be the starter. You eliminated the possibility of a bad battery as well.

Ideas:

A blown fuse to the fuel pump
Bad fuel pump
timing belt off
cam sensor
bad plugs?

Found the following on another website:

"The first thing to do is to see if it lost spark or fuel. What I suspect is happening here is the injectors are leaking down into the cylinders thus flooding the engine. The way to test for this is to put a fuel pressure gauge on it, pinch off the feed and return lines and watch the fuel pressure gauge. If it drops then you know you have leaking injectors."

Might want to try holding the gas pedal down when starting...

Car problems suck! I've owned my svx obly a few months and have had enough issues to last a lifetime. but...I still love it
