CAR OVER HEATED AND RAN OUT OF GAS DURING TRAVEL REPLACED WATER PUMP AND THERMOSTAT, ADDED GAS. NOW CAR WILL NOT START SOUNDS AND LOOKS LIKE IT IS CRANKING OVER TOO SLOW. CAN YOU SUGGEST ANY SOLUTIONS.

Cranks but no start condition:

Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine at least 3/16 away from ground -have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/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 packs, coil's resistances, distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it.
