Fuel problems cant get car to start

Is it electric or mechanical pump? Electric is with fuel injection. If its fuel injection, you should hear the pump run when you turn ignition switch. If u don't hear it, try starting, if no, turn off then on. It will self prime. Carburetor is with mechanical pump. I usually put few drops of gas in the carb. Start it, if no, more in carb till it stays running.

You don't have a carberator on it, it's fuel injected. Id try spraying carb cleaner in the throttle while you have someone turn it over. If it fires up for a few seconds then dies then you might have a fuel pump problem or fuel filter clogged. If it still doesnt fire up then check if you have spark, if no spark see if your crank sensor is good and if your coil is getting power. If your coil is not getting power you might have a crank sensor problem. Try this and let me know if it helps.

check to make cretin you have spark, do you have gas, put a little in just in case your gas Gage is not working
if you have mechanical skills, check for fuel pressure at the fuel intake your fuel pump may not be working
this should help for starters good luck

sounds like its not holding fuel pressure i would check the fuel pump with fuel pressure guage.

If your engine timing is good, (meaning the cam is timed to the crank, and distributor) and you have spark and fuel, your engine will run. Try a compression test, and back up and re-test fuel and spark. Make sure the spark works with a HEI spark tester. (Coils can go bad and give a weak spark)

Sounds like you have a vacuum leak somewhere causing the engine to flood.Check all hoses coming fron intake manifold.

small gas engines 101. gas+air+compression+spark=vrrrrrrroooooommmm
i doubt its a fuse. make sure all cylinder have good spark. try and run some seafoam through the gas tank and i would look at the timing - im not sure how you know the timing didnt skip but that sounds like your problem.

Does it crank the engine ? If not take a look at the starter connections and the starter.Replace the starter if nessesary.
Ok, now that you got the most common problems out of the way, you should check for spark at the spark plugs. Remove a spark plug and attached to the wire. Get a good pair of rubber gloves and put the thread of the plug to ground and crank the engine. The spark plug should spark a bluish spark. If it has an orange spark the spark plug or wire may be bad. if it does spark fairly good.

Check the fuel pump. if it has an electric fuel pump you should hear it when you turn the switch to on. It is a whirring sound. if you can't hear it. the Pump is bad or the shutoff valve turned off the fuel system. Check it to see if the button is up. If it is then the valve clicked off. Press it down. If it is down and there is no fuel the fuel pump is bad.

If it is a mechanical pump, take off the hose to the carb if it does have one. crank the engine . It should pump gas right away.

If it does have spark or fuel to the sytem, then it is a sensor or other problem.You will have to get a trouble code for it. to narrow everything down.

Check the timing belt or chain to see if it is still good and tight. If it is not your timing belt or chain skipped or cut off. you will have to replace it.

I hope you can get some help from this info . good luck

check for spark by removing a sparkplug

Is it fuel injected or carb??? If it is carb try using starting fluid to see if it will fire. If it does you have a fuel problem.
