MY CAR TURNS OVER, BUT DOESN'T START. I CHECKED FOR FUEL IT HAS FUEL AND FUEL PRESSURE. IT ALSO HAS SPARK. I BROUGHT IT UP ON TDC AND CHECKED THE ROTOR AND IT POINTS TO THE #1 WIRE ON THE CAP. COULD IT BE THE IGNITION MODULAR? I AM LOST. PLEASE HELP! THANK YOU

Test for injector pulse. It is what makes the injectors spray fuel into the engine

OK I'LL CHECK FOR INJECTOR PULSE, BUT WHEN I PULLED THE #1 PLUG OUT THE CYLINDER WAS FULL OF GAS. ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS?

Only #1 was full of gas? Compression test, then it might be a stuck injector or no spark to that cyl

THANKS FOR THE REPLY. I SHOULD HAVE TOLD YOU ALL THE CYLINDERS HAD FUEL IN THEM. ALL THE SPARK PLUGS ARE FIRING. THE CAR WILL NOT START. IT JUST CRANKS AND CRANKS. THE CAR HAS FUEL AND SPARK. IT DOESN'T FIRE UP.

Hows the compression? Just last week I did a head gasket on a Nissan that was doing the same thing. Head was a little loose, leaking compression between all the cylinders
