Try this? remove all spark plugs and dry them out use a heat source ie gas hob? if wife permits?? then spin engine over to clear cyl/s and refit warmed up plugs ? if you have wd40 or ignition damp start? spray all ign coils/leads electrical connections/ or see if wife will let you use hair dryer and carefully blow ign leads/coils etc then try restart ? this may be a simple case of damp plugs/ignition and engine/plugs are flooded from dampness trying to start after snow ? wish you luck please update on progress

1999 acura integra engine bay filled wit snow and now engine wont start. Removed sparkplugs and they were not wet. Fuel pump works and i am getting spark. Replaced battery. Best i am getting is the sound...

How long has it been since the snow filled the bay? Has the snow been cleared away and is the bay now dry? If not, there's probably some connection somewhere that is wet and therefore not making a good connection. The bay will probably need to be thoroughly dried before the engine will readily start.

Got stuck in snow storm left over night and engine compartment filled with snow tryed starting didnt start towed to heated garage for night and still wont start it smells like fuel in air box might be...

It probably is flooded from trying to start it.Originally the the air tube probably was packed with snow so the engine wasn't drawing air in. If you turn the key on and push the gas pedal to the floor this should activate what is called clear flood mode.If it will not still start would suggest removing all the sparkplugs and cleaning or replacing them also make sure that the air induction tube is clear and dry.

2005 hyndia accent check engine light came on,1 day later car stalled and would not start. code p0340 cam shaft sensor replaced it still wont start gets spark fuel pump turns on any thoughts or suggestions...

Check that the timing has not jumped, incorrect timing will trigger a cam sensor code as the ecu can not work out the correct position of the cam.

The battery will not charge and the dash instrument cluster will not work. we have checked all the fuses and none of them are blown. its a 2005 ford f550

It sounds like you have a fuseable link that has melted... Check down by the starter... There may be another connector and main power terminal in the left side of the engine compartment but remember when you look inside the engine compartment it will be on your right....

2002 Hyundai Accent GL will turn over, but it won't start

For the Accent pls try to check the fuel pressure on the fuel line from fuel pump outlet to injecter rail.The way of doing the test-1.connect the pressure gauge to fuel line.2.Crank the engine till start and while run the engine check the fuel pressure.must be around 3.5bars.Allow the engine run about 3minutes and switch off the ignition.4.After one hour check the fuel pressure on the gauge.If the fuel pressur is too low,that will indicate the problem with fuel pressure regulater.I can not give the accuraye pressure readings for the fuell pressure variation cause i dont have follow the Accent service manuel.I am related to Peugeot vehicles.If u have any feed back,my e mail [email protected]

2004 hyundai accent. trouble filling gas tank

I have a 2005 Hyundai Accent, It is not possible to fill the tank if you are letting the petrol pump run at full speed.Trying to fill up quickly it will only build up pressure and cut off. Next time you fill up just pull the petrol pump handle half way, it will take longer to fill but you wont get the blow back. Modern petrol pumps are getting quicker all the time.Hope this helps you.
