car won't start


Recommended Posts

ok..so today and yesterday my car wouldn't start

 

it turns over but refuses to start

 

but! when I unhook the battery for 5 minutes and reset the ECM it starts up fine.

 

There's no symptoms or anything, just 2 random times it wouldn't start for no apparent reason.

 

Any ideas?

Hmm.... kinda sounds maybe like a faulty ECM. How about this. The next time it does that, check to make sure it's getting enough spark and check your fuel pressure.

fuel pressure is good, i checked that both times...i will make sure and check the spark next time though

bah...problem solved...it happened again at Krogers...getting spark and everything

 

I tried resetting the computer with no avail...ended up walking to wal-mart and getting some dry gas and poured it in, about 5 minutes later and a lot of cranking it started right up.

 

I guess it starting after resetting the computer was pure coincidence
