Hi Tammy, does you vehicle have any lights lit on the Dash, check engine light etc... You need to see if you have battery + voltage at the coils , an to see if the PCM is turning them on an off ! PCM - is the engine control module . An see if there is an input signal from the crankshaft position sensor . It would also be good to hook-up a scan tool to see if it can communicate with the PCM . Mite have a shorted 5volt reference circuit . Do you have 2.4 L 4 cylinder or 3.0L V-6 ? IF you have the 2.4 L 4 cylinder you need to Check for B+ on the Black/White wire at pin 4 in the connector at the ignition failure sensor with the key on. Jumper the Black/White wire at pin 4 to the wire at pin 3 at the ignition failure sensor connector. If spark is present now, replace the ignition failure sensor. Unplug the Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor connector. Check for 5 volts on the Green/Red wire. Reconnect the CKP sensor connector. Check the Black wire for a good ground. Check for B+ on the Red wire. If the Green/Red wire goes higher when connected to the sensor and cranking the engine, the CKP sensor is faulty. Let me know if you have questions, thanks.

My 2001 mit galant 4 cylinder engine will not start. Is it the fuel pump? I can't hear it come on when I turn ignition to on position.

It could be fuel pump. It may be something else... Engines need fuel, spark and air to run. Remove any one, it won't start.

2005 mitsubisi galant will crank but wont start

There's two main issues that cause this:
no spark; and no fuel.

No spark can have many causes, from a dead spark coil to a broken crank angle sensor. Can also be the coolant temp sensor.
Check for any error codes from the ECU.

Open the gas cap and see if the car swill start. You should be able to hear a buzzing from the fuel pump just after you try to start.

2001 dodge stratus 2.7L wont start. Starter, battery, fuel pump is good. Help!

Do the basic tests. If it cranks good but won't start, have a helper crank it while you check for spark at the plugs. If spark everywhere use a gage and check proper fuel pressure and fuel injector pulse.
Any applicable trouble codes?

My 2001 mitsubishi galant will not turn over. starter is good, battery is good, and we just put in a new fuel pump which is also good. why wont the fuel go into the engine?

I am assuming when you are saying that the vehicle will not turn over, that you mean that it will not start. There is a valve on the fuel rail, which is how the fuel is delivered to the injectors, that looks similar to the valve stem on your tire, this is called a schrader valve. You need to loosen the stem in the valve, and the turn the ignition on and off several times to pressurize the fuel rail. When you start to get fuel out of the schrader valve, you will tighten the stem in the valve. Then your car should start. If you meant that your car will not turn over, as in the starter not engaging, then you need to check your starter relay.

Our 2001 Galant will not start.

The fuel filter is possible but not probable. Questions to ask yourself: Was the car running of before failure (meaning was it running ok until you went to start it the next day?) If it died overnight or after parking it for a few hours I'd say no not the filter. Does it have spark? If yes then ok, if not probably a sensor (crank sensor / cam sensor failed) Does it get fuel? Crank it over for five seconds or so and check to see if plugs are wet. If no it may be a sensor or failed fuel pump or fuel pump relay.

Please let me know what you find.

Thanks,
Tom

I have a 2001 GMC Sonoma 4.3L that stalled while driving. Will turn over but wont start. Have spark, new battery, and the back spark plugs are dry. No error codes. Has fuel to manifold.

SOUND LIKE FUEL PUMP BAD. CHECK FUEL PUMP RELAY AND FUSE.MAKE SURE YOUR ENGINE IS NOT OVERHEATING.SCAN IT FOR IDLE SPEED CONTROL AND ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR FAULTS.
