Check your carburetor and the air filter element. Without the air filter out, you can see gas coming out of the carburetor jets as you let somebody start your engine. Gas must get out of it, if your engine has to start. No gas--- get your carburetor jets cleaned. Then, replace your carburetor. Air filter must be free from sludge, otherwise get a replacement..Get this done, and send in your e-mail.

2002 saturn sl won't start, turn over but won't start

If the engine fires up for a second or two with starting fluid then the fuel pump is weak.I would check the fuel pressure and if its not within the specs then replace the pump and filter.

1988 toyota camry 2.0 turns over but won't start. Car has been driving like a champ and one morning wouldn't start. Turns over fine but won't fire. Tested for spark by removing spark plugs...

Fuel pressure at idle is normally 30-35psi. Start by taking the gas cap off, and putting it back on. That will De-pressurize the fuel system. Also, make sure you have gas in the car. I have seen gauges on these cars read wrong. I hope this helps.

It could be the fuel pump. Sometimes you can hear them engage, but they are not pushing enough fuel pressure to run the car. This can be checked.

Car gets fuel has spark but won;t start.motor turns over .it seems to want to start,for the first turn over.then not

Check the actual fuel pressure and make sure it is to spec. Fuel injected vehicles need a certain pressure to run.
