I was driving my vehicle and it just stopped, I still had power but it was as if my engine was not responding. It would no longer gain speed, in fact it lost speed and I had to pull over. It took some time while I was in school and have recently replaced the camshaft position sensor, but it has been almost a year now and I cannot get the obd tester to even find a fault code any more. Long story short the vehicle still will not turn over, please help.

Hi eshia5857,

Thank you for the donaion.

When the engine can be cranked without firing up, we need to check if the cause is electrical ignition, mechanical or fuel related.

1. Electrical ignition. Check for sparks at plugs.
2. Mechanical. Check if the timing belt has given way.
3. Test for fuel pressure to fuel rails.

Check the above and let me know which is missing or seems to be faulty.
