Car cranks but will not start. I checked crank sensor coil, fuel pressure, spark at front cylinders. Need other ideas or areas to go to.

Hello,

Two things come to mind we should check to get started, First lets make sure the engine has compression.

Next lets see if the injectors have pulse.

Here is a guide to help you as well.

Cheers, Ken
