BMW 1996 318i touring 173000 miles 1796cc
It was running fine then it wouldnt REV, got it home and now it wont start.
Had a Diagnostics Firm out and this is what we replaced. The Air flow sensor, relay for the oxygen sensor, air-flow sensor. The throttle body, The ECU.
We have a good spark because plugs are new.
His computer is telling him it should start, but it doesnt. You can smell Gas and it does turn over but that is it. If its electrical how do you find that problem. Its been in the driveway for 4 weeks.
Thank You. Please Help! :(

If you smell gas it mean fuel is getting to the engine. Can you confirm the ignition is work properly?

Yes it turn's over realy strongly.
Like I said in what we replaced it should have started by now. The Diagnostic firm removed some sensors yesterday June 5 to check them out.
173000 and 1796cc.
Thank You.
