When i try to start the engine it makes a noise as if its gonna start but it doesnt. How can i make it to start? Also, I cannot find the plug in order to check the codes. How many sensors are there on the engine and where can I find them? The car I'm working on is Lumina APV 1992. Thank you.

What you need to do is check for fuel pressure.The pressure should be 60-66 for central sequential fuel injection and 56-62 for sequential fuel injection.If pressure is good then check for spark at the spark plugs.If you don`t have a way to check for fuel pressure then tap on the gas tank bottom with your foot or hammer while someone is turning the key and trying to start the vehicle.If it starts then replace the fuel pump.If this is good then check coil and ignition module if you are not getting spark.Hope this helps.Good luck.
