My van quit and won't start. I changed fuel pump fuel filter also changed fuel injectors spark plugs. Now it turns over but won't catch. Why? Also I can't find the relay switch.

Hello,

Okay, so an engine needs only three things and it has no option but to start. They are, in no particular order, fuel, spark (delivered at the right time), and compression. So lets start with spark. Can you please verify that your vehicle's engine is getting spark. Here is a link describing how to do this below:

Please go through this guide and get back to us with what you are able to find out. We can go from there.

Thanks,
Alex
