Hey guys, I need some trouble shooting tips that can help me head in the right direction.
Just yesterday, My car was perfectly fine. I tried to start it today, and it was a no go. The engine cranks, but the car doesn't start. What are the possible problems that could cause this? Thanks for all the replies in advance!! |

My brother had a problem like this a while back. He was driving to the bank and while he was in the parking lot, the engine just completely stopped running. Electrical wise it was working. The engine wouldn't start up. Turns out that the TIMING BELT cut loose becuz it was old. I suggest taking off the valve cover and check the timing belt on the cam gear just to make sure it isn't the timing belt. It's only 6 bolts on the top and get a flat screw and pop it open.
