forgot to check all fuse first
gas engine, sure
then scan the PCM as it cranks and fails, oops this must be done
all car ran before so what matters is now and only now.
cranks great but will not start has up to 50 cause , both engine and EFI causes.
if the engine is good (IDK) compression tests pass.
then check spark if there is no spark it can not run. or if the PCM
detects spark bad it cuts fuel hard. all cars gas do that.
pure PCM hard coded logic inside.
lots of causes. bad engine, bad spark or bad fueling
even bad fuel or wrong fuel put in the thank or sabotage..
car is 23 years old and cars LOVE to fail that old and for sure not serviced every year. or 60k miles up ,repeat service.
lets say spark is bad this engine uses 2 paired spark coils
called wasted spark if 1 plug nor HV fails 2 slugs go dead, doomed
sorry will not run on 2 cylinders ever.
so put in new spark plugs and the 4 HV wire sets, do them 1 at a time and not wreck firing order, 1,3,4,2
sorry those 2 things do not last 23 years ever, now why Jose'
was the cam chain screaming its guts out for long time? oops
bad act that.
2RZ-FE I4
if scans to not solve this,
check fuel pressure next
by the book.
if the chain fails, this engine is interference and valves bend
