CAR CRANKS OVER BUT NO START I SMELL GAS UNDER HOOD

double posted and tests DONE WRONG
the battery must not be dead is first
and not testing fuse, with KEY on,
1;/2 the fuses are dead KEY off that is 100% Normal.
key on does IP cluster glow lamps as it did just like it did for 13 years?
head lamps bright key on an off both, (it must)
heater blower on high, works loud ,key on,
is the starter motor dead/? called cranking,?????????????

you said new crank , I'm sure you meant a new starter motor>?
is the starter dead? now? if yes post how to test a dead starter.
starters fail in many ways.

• dead
• chatters.
• clicks,
• makes a HUGE nasty loud bang, (engine or it seized)
• or starter spins fast (sounds like sewing machined) but engine cranks shaft never spins (turns ) starter pinon failure.

or starter goes GRRRRRGRRRRRR and crank shaft spins but does not start.(seen and heard)

a dead starter with a good battery (charged) may crank
if you learn to crank it in NEUTRAL. (auto tranny?)
does starter work , JUMPER cable jump started?????
crank in park then try Neutral.
on stick shift cars the clutch switch bad kills cranking.

running the fuel pump dry wrecks them, it is fuel cooled and fuel lubricated pump and dry wreck them,.
but now has problem #2 the starter is dead, dead slient.
here are the causes. (all) and tests.
if confused tow it to as shop or ask AAA to jump start it.
does jump starts fail>>> this is key fact this. (power)

1. check all fuses first. under-hood box and cab.fuse box.
2. head lamps must be bright, key on and key off, are they>?
3. if bright the starter relay and or starter solenoid will click or chatter, my but the relay is tiny sound now, is it clicking? keyed to start.??
4. The car has manual or autotransmission, guess AUTO
5. Auto , PRNDL, put gear shift to N, from P, using foot brake key on per the users guide, and next crank it in Neutral. does this magic trick work>? the users guide even tells now. this test finds a bad PARK switch in the tranny.
6. ON this car the PCm and BCM run the starter relay totally.
7. this means they must be happy and cars battery charged and never below 10.VDC. or they MALF.. voltmeter checked.
8. Now the IP cluster, is the IMMO lamp lock glowing wrong?
9. if yes, IMMO does not like your key ,try both?
10. cluster show hood switch open, cranking is blocked, is hood open or there are hood open errors>?
11. that is it for now, as you can see doing jumper cables jump start cranking is hard with #10 hood up. oops fails. I bypass the hood switch to do this. and is a double switch , ouch.
12. if car has remote start option all this gets more complex.stop

Will not crank over or will not run? A bad battery will cause the solenoid to open and close rapidly causing a funny noise and even give of a smell from the battery. Check it first.

Marco, check under the hood in the fuse box for the starter relay. You may be able to swap it with one like it if it has the same numbers on it just to see if it cranks over.

is this this s DIY question or ? just a request for wild guessing.
Ill assume its a real DIY. ? do tell.
what is a jumper box to house. ?????????????????
first off, you need to say,
it cranks robustly but does not start or not.
does it crank? if yes, why buy a starter?
no car starts unless cranked. (mine push starts and gravity starts)
but I bet yours is a A/T tranny , automatic.?
so does it crank.?
?
lets pretend, it cranks perfectly.
and really is a no start (confusing your replacing a starter )
this jeep , like most from 1993 have the ASD relay.
THE ASD relay must close to start the engine.
The ASD relay must close, and if spark , and up to 7 other things
are good, then it will stay closed, if not it drops out. KILLING starts.
that is what it does, so watch the ASD while cranking, what does it do>???????????

now I will do NO CRANK.
and the funny house box thing, (a battery charger? or what i cant guess)
no cranks are caused.
By bad shifter, switch.
this is called the key line.
so i hot wire the starter solenoid, (remove tiny wire first to it)
ask how to do this.... its not hard. (mostly but some cars have shields making it harder today)
and it dont crank ! NOW? , then bad battery,starter bad, cables or seized engine. (turn engine by hand ,ok? to spin? by hand?)
and it does crank. then bad key line is reason.
easy huh? just one hot wire step and bam, problem cut in half.
i then try to crank in neutral, bam it cranks. and starts.
bad PRNLD switch.
or i just wiggle the shifter, bam, it cranks
or i wiggle the key switch funny in crank position and bam it cranks
bad key switch.

last, pretend the starter fails the hot wire above.
i hit it with a hammer, bam it cranks now.

we can do all that with a voltmeter easy,
ask.

see hot to solve no cranks on most cars.

other simular failures.
battery dies after parked.?
charge light (dash) on , driving? or idling, bingo, dead battery.


one more , car cranks but will not start for longer than 2 seconds
ASD action
but you failed to notice the Immobilizer lamp glowing wrongly.


my last answer. the funny house thing is a battery charger
and if you leave it charging long enough car cranks.
bingo?.?????
if yes, then the battery is DEAD and is DISCHARGED.
it discharged because you or something is left running, in car.
see phantom drains here.
the reason the car jump failed is you didnt give it enough time.
a very bad car battery can swamp the donor cars power source.
(and easy with cheap jumper cables.)
here is what you did wrong.

car is rested, it wont crank
you open the hood.
and check the batteryvoltage with a volt meter.
it reads 12.6vdc rested. good, it should crank ok, (but my not)
or it reads 12v, its discharged, so charge it to 12.6v and try again.

1. won't crank?
2. battery discharges overnight.?
3. won't start but cranks ok.?
4. charge light stuck on.? running.?

which?

ok this is the same question as before if it turns over ok fuel or fire problem if it doesnt crank at all and the battery is good starter problem or fuse burnt so if i understand new battery no crank starter problem or new battery cranks ok fuel or fire problem which is it

if it doesn't crank over test the starter jump the small wire on the starter to battery voltage if it cranks there the problem is the car side if it still doesn't crank the starter is bad

You mean wont CRANK or CRANKS but WONT RUN???? 4 cyl or V6 auto or manual trans????????? The 8th VIN digit would be most helpful as there are 4 different engines for that car. Its really cheaper to check items before you replace them. The starter should have a smaller BLACK wire that should have power on it when trying to crank the car. You say it wont crank, then check the neutral switch on the trans. Try putting it in neutral to start it. If it has a manual trans, the clutch switch on the pedal may be bad. There is a starter relay in the fuse box under the hood that powers the starter, does it click if you turn the key to start? if it does then the relay is at least trying to work, but doenst mean the contacts inside are good, If it does not click, then the neutral switch may be bad.Check the BLACK/YELLOW wire at the trans switch, if it has power on it, the switch may be bad, ground that (Black/Yellow)wire and see if it cranks. I dont know if there are any other relays in the fuse box that you can swap for the starter relay for test purposes.

the starter it self......if it doesnot crank it is the starter........

the starter probably has one or two chipped teeth..."if you can try going under ur car and remove the starter......

hope this helps man ! XD

check your injectors too. maybe the problem lies there
