Crank will not turn over

Hi,

If the starter engages and the engine doesn't start, it can be several things. First, although you hear the fuel pump, it may not be producing enough pressure to start the engine. Or, there could be a loss of ignition spark to the plugs. Here are two links that I need you to check out and perform the tests indicated:

Here is a link that covers the most common causes for a crank no start condition. Take a look through it.

Now, here is a simple test. Since the starter is turning the engine, see if it will start using starting fluid. If it does, then we know it is a fuel related issue. If it doesn't, then suspect ignition spark.

If I totally misunderstood you and the starter won't engage, let me know.

Take care and let me know the results.

I suspect either the fuel pump has failed or there is no spark. Do you feel comfortable performing the tests I listed above?
