My car's been sitting for about a month. I tried to start it today and it won't start. It cranks, but doesn't fire up. Anyone might know what's up?

I scared... https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...>/blackeye.gif

I still think the color may be the problem..

vudoodoodoo 01-09-2003 04:05 PM

I tried cranking it w/ the gas pedal down. Still no go.



I gonna try pulling the plugs and cranking it tomorrow. I wonder if you can syphon the gas outta there throught the plug holes... :yum:

you can also try push starting it that works too.



when you hold down the gas pedal to the floor it cuts the fuel injectors

If the battery is dead, it would cranks a little and sorta die. It would like crank and sorta whine and stop. At least that's what happened last time my battery died.



The current battery is pretty new though.
