Got gas?
too much gas?
Good compression? Hows the plugs?
3 things 2 always check; gas, spark, compression. |

this might sound stupid, but check your battery connections. i had a problem last year when my car wouldn't start. i pulled the battery everything looked fine, i even had it checked (it was only 18 months old). there was just enough build up on the posts to keep the starter from running.
this will only help if the car wont crank. if the car cranks, just 3 things to check, spark, air, fuel. get a hold of rob (rdscelica) he might be able to make a house call for you. |

I had this problem several times. My connector was loose, so I had to rig up a system to get it to stay on. But it doesn't sound like that's your issue though... |

well its not the battery the battery is quite new, i disconected the fuel line from what looks like a fuel filter located right below the air filter housing. when i tried to turn the car over fuel came out. i pulled all the spark plugs replaced them and then thried to ground them out on the block there was no spark.
So i pulled the distributer cap 2 connections were worn off and the was oil or water and sludge covering the bottom one the other one was fine, so i replace the housing and the rotor still wont start
any ideas??? |

My guess is maybe your AFM or ECU. Same thing happened to me when I was swapping my engine.
BTW this is Stealth... |
