I have a 1991 Eagle Summit(same as the Mitsubishi Mirage) 1.5L with almost 400,000 miles. They car was garaged over the winte, since late November and now I can not get the engine to start.
I have charged the battery, changed the spark plugs, checked for any wire harnesses and vacuum hoses the may have came loose and have not found any.
When I turn the key the engine turns but will not start. I've never had any previous problems with the car except the alternator going bad several years ago.
Any ideas? I'd like to start driving it again this spring due to the great gas mileage I get with it.
Thanks.

Do you have spark? Do you have the spark at the correct time? Is your air filter clogged? Is gas reaching the injectors and getting intto the combustion chamber? Do you have compression? I'd check out these things first
