My son had driven it the night befoe and was nearly out of fuel. Put some fuel in it has it would not start the next day and thought it was out of fuel. Just turns over and cant smell any gas or see any gas in carb. Changed the fuel filter and when did this there was fuel on either side of the old filter. Could that just be by gravity from the tank or does my fuel pump have to pump it there.

=everett ogle] it is a throttle body injection, and I removed the fuel line to the carb body and turned on the key and gasoline came flooding out, however when I turn the engine over nothing is coming into the carb, it is as though the injectors are not opening, so does this have something to do with there being no spark possibly the ignition control module?
