Car running fine for weeks. Temp. Dropped and I get a no start. Battery is fine. Pulled fuel line and fuel is running. Checked for spark and that is good as well. Air intake appears clear. After I bought this for my son, the brain surgeon that sold it told me said he uses 40 wt. Oil because it burns oil. With that said, could the heavy weight prevent the motor from turning freely so that combustion can occur. The motor does spin but no ignition.

Removing ur fuel line only tells u that u have fuel flow not if u have enough pressure to start.I would check ur spark plugs make sure there not fuel fowled. Also try to start it with the gas pedal held all the way down while cranking it.I suspect ethier too low of fuel pressure or a bad coolant temp sesor. Let me know what u find.
