I have spark, Fuel, and Compression. Timing belt replaced few months back along with tensioner. I started the car and had to run back in so shut it off and it wouldnt start back up when I came back out. Have talked to several auto stores. And no one seems to know whats up. In the past when I started it it would die out but start right back up. Distrubitor went out a few months back and it was replaced with a new one along with the ignition coil. The ignition control moduel is in the distrubitor so it was replaced at the same time.

If you have spark that will eliminate the distributor and ignition system and timing belt
and if you have fuel pressure and fuel suggest that the fuel pump is OK too
check for injector pulse
check fuses
check fuel for contamination

Well now my check engine light comes on for about 3 seconds and just turns off. Dont remember if it did that before. Someone told me it could be my ECU. But I dont know much about that but would think if that was bad it wouldnt be getting spark or fuel
