I parked my car over a week in excellent running condition and now it won't start. It will turn but won't start. What could possibly go wrong just for left it parked for little over a week? I've checked all the fuses, they are fine. There's plenty of gas in the tank. Battery is almost new.

No start condition:

Get a helper disconnect a sparkplug wire or 2 and ground it to the engine -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, distributor pick-up coil, ignition control module, cam and crank sensors and computer Note: If it doesn't apply disregard.
