after doing some research (and procrastinating) i have figured out that my ignition signal circuit is messed up.
that, however, is something i don't really have much knowledge of. my car wouldnt start on occasion sometimes but i figured it was just a bad starter because eventually it would start after a few tries. But me being the poor kid that i am, i never got around to fixing it. but anyways could someone please explain to me what needs to be done/ checked in detail?

Yeah it sparks at least. About the fuel part, i'm not sure like the engine cranks and shakes just a little bit and sounds like it will start then it doesn't.

Before this, when it started (after a few attempts) a giant plume of smoke came out the exhaust, and i mean a TON. i don't know if that really has anything to do with this but eh. i might just be forced to tow it somewhere.
