Hello
Thanks for the donation.

You will first need to check to ensure all spark plugs are receiving a bright blue healthy spark. Also check to make sure fuel pressure is at correct PSI. Let me know what you get and I will follow up.

Thanks for using 2CarPros. Com!

Also to ad to bluelightnin6, another common issue is the crank sensor that goes into the top of transmission casing straight down from valve cover by fire wall. Easy to replace one bolt. And connector at top of firewall next to wiring harness.
