Engine Mechanical problem
1997 Chrysler Sebring 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic
----------------------------------------------------------------
I just put in new distributor, engine started for about 45 seconds then stoped and wont start again. Engine turns but won't start. I need help on this is my daughters car and needs it for school. thanks

Lets try below and see what happens if its fuel or spark

Get a carb cleaner and spray into the carb or the throttle body on an EFI. Did it start and die? If not disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine -have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil,distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors-

There is no spark. That was the reason I was told to change the distributor. Will the cam or crank sensor make the car not start? I put in the throtle position sensor, the distributor cap and rotor and no spark, then I put the distributor and thats when it started for 45 seconds and stoped and no spark again. What next? thanks for your help

Inspect and test the cam and crankshaft sensors

Its strange because I sprayed starting fluid and it starts. I checked the fuel pump and it works perfect. Could it be the voltage to the injectors? if so How would I check the voltage to the injectors?
Thanks for your help.

One of the wire on the injectors should have battery voltage the other is the driver ground circuit-check it out or use a noid light and crank engine over is the light flashing?

Check the injectors resistance with an ohmmeter if its within specs-could be an injector shorted out and dragging the rest down-

I just checked for voltage at the injector and there is no voltage at all. I put a test light and no voltage, crank the engine and nothing. what is causing that? what next?
