Car won't start. Cranks fine, but no fire.

Have they checked for a short in the steering column where the signal switch and ignition wires may be touching or shorting together.

check and test the coils and the points / ignition module. Check that the rotor button is not cracked . Check that the carbon button in the distributor cap is still spring loaded . Check that the HT wire to the distributor is operational

Hello David,
It sounds like by reading the second sentence that your problem began when you filled it up. Are you sure 100% that you put gas in your car and not diesel by accident? That would most certainly cause all your issues. Get a sample of the fuel from the carburetor or fuel line leading to it and verify that it is indeed gas. If it is diesel then you've got to purge /empty it all from the tank to the carb of the diesel fuel! This can be a very messy and possibly dangerous job especially while dealing with gas. Make sure you have lots of ventilation when doing this fuel swap if it applies. Good Luck!

Check fuel pressure at injector rail.

To clarify - - if the engine cranks the battery and starter are ok.
The alternator does not come into play until the engine is running.
If it cranks but won't start, you have to figure out if you are missing fuel to the injectors or spark to the plugs to proceed.
A mechanic would check that and if there are any trouble codes stored in the computer.

It may be the CRANK SENSOR ,i had a car one time,it started fine,and drove fine one day i drove it about15 miles,stopped ,got back in it, started it, drove about 5 miles ,and cuts of with a little hesitation,it cranks but does not run, i sit there for about 20 minutes,crank it, it starts back ,i drive it back another 15 miles ,and runs great ** the crank sensor gives the signal to the ECM if the ECM ,never get that signal ,it does n't know to crank the car,or what cylinder to start with,check with your saturn ealer ,and get a second opinon

I have a 2009 Accord 4 cyl. with 10,000 miles. I am having difficulty starting the car occasionally. Dealer said there is nothing wrong with the car.

You have checked fuel pressure? Have you checked for spark?

perhaps you need a new cap and roter a new spark plug wire set. they don;t like moisture. also check to see if you have any broken or leaking vacuum hoses. the worse case senerio would be that your head gasket is leaking--at cold temps a little antifreeze will enter until everything warms up and it seals shut due to metal expanding. but since you say it's cold weather only--this probably wou;dn't be the case. good luck.
