Car has been sitting for a month. Went to turn the key in the ignition and it sputtered. Car would not start. Lights come on but car would not start. Tried jumping it but it still would not start. The sputtering died out after several attempts. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine atleast 3/16 away from ground-have helper crank engine over-do you have a snapping blue spark? If so-you have a fuel related problem, check the fuel pressure to rule out the fuel filter/fuel pump/pressure regulator and listen to the injector/s are they pulsing or hook up a noid light. No snapping blue spark continue to troubleshoot the ignition system-power input to the coil/coil packs, coil's resistances, cap and rotor, distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard it and keep testing

If you turn the key and no noise when trying to start then its starter.
My accord 92 had starter die out.
