My 87 cherokee turns over but wont start. it has a new starter. When i bleed the fuel rail it sots out gas but the engine isnt starting please help
First check fuel and spark. If you now its getting fuel then verify that it has spark. the more info tou can give the better.
Oh, Well when I hear that It sounds like you have a bad head-gasket(antifreeze into the cylinder/s) your doing it a little out of order. check/inspect the plugs first. Also check the oil(pull the dip stick) see if there is sludge. If you dont own a spark tester then pull a spark plug out snap it back into the spark plug wire and ground the spark-plug to a metal part of the engine. wear thick insulated gloves, if the wires are in poor condition and/or the plug isnt properly grounded. You may get an electric jolt. someone needs to hold the plug and look for a blue ark at the electrode while someone else turns the engine over.IM curiuos what you find, good luck.
