starting problem Help
Got out of work at 2AM, and my car would not start. It sat for the entire 8 hour shift. It turns over normally but doesnt start. Im guessing its not getting any fuel. I called svxfiles at 2AM he was annoyed at first, but stayed with me for 10 minutes or so, and still would not start. This is a mystery to me, cause this never happened before. New starter a month ago, and as I said turns over quickly, but wont start. I caught a ride home from a coworker and left it in the parking lot at work. I will see if it starts tomorrow, if not, will have to get it towed. Any ideas or suggestions. Im thinking fuel pump, relay, etc. It was 25 degrees and car covered in frost at the time. I drove the car all day and it started fine. Filled up with premium right before work at Citgo. Could there be water in the fuel system and it froze. Sounds like a dump suggestion, but I have no idea. Help

Re: starting problem Help
Turns over quickly? Snapped timing belt perhaps.

Re: starting problem Help
I would guess no fuel to engine for starters and go from there.
Ck if fuel pressure is an easy one since there is continually pressure in the line to the fuel filter if the pump is pumping, and there is fuel in the gas tank! |

Re: starting problem Help
Tried to start it again today, and it wont start. Today it sounds worse, it turns over, but not as easily as yesterday. Sounds like its misfiring almost. Remember, resealed engine and tuned up back in the spring at svxfiles. Calling a flatbed later on tonight, once parking lot is emptied.
