Smells problem
2005 Buick Roadmaster V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic 180000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
No leak detected, I can hear the fuel pump running when key is put into "ON" position. Thinking it might be the spark plugs, or the engine is flooded. This is not my car, its my grandparents. They had a lot of stuff done at a Jiffy Lube, so I'm thinking they had a lot of stuff that didn't actually get done. Thanks.

Could be that there's a problem within the ignition components that's causing it not to produce spark-

What would be the best way to check the ignition components?

Start by disconnecting plug wires and grounding it while cranking the engine over-do you have spark?
