Repair Safety Notice:
This information is for general instructional purposes only. Vehicle repair can be dangerous.
Verify all information, follow manufacturer service procedures, use proper tools and safety equipment,
and consult a qualified repair shop when needed.
There are a number of things that we need to check. Starting with seeing if it starts by spraying some starter fluid in the intake. If it does then you have a fuel delivery issue. It could just be a fuse or relay or the pump but we need to try to limit this down to one of the possible causes.
You need fuel, ignition at the correct time, and compression. Let's start with checking for fuel because it is the most likely and easiest.
