Car stopped running for no reason going down the road. Won't start up now.
Could be almost anything.
If it cranks good but, won't start, make sure battery has a full charge. Don't crank the starter more than a few seconds at a time, let it cool off. Have helper crank it, while you visually check for spark at the spark plugs. If spark everywhere, use a gage and check proper fuel pressure. Also, check fuel injector pulse, do testing with engine cranking.
How long since a tune-up? Any applicable trouble codes?
Its my mothers car. She says it sputtered while driving then shut off completely after it sputtered. Wont start but cranks over. Dunno because the car is 1,000 miles away from me...but sounds like it could be Tune up,Ignition switch,or maybe the timing chain? What do you think? Thanks.
W/o being able to do any testing, I don't know?
