Please consider following matters:
1. Ignition. Blue color fire is the the best ignition power 2. Gas. Check your fuel filter and injections 3. Compression. Combustion chambers should have enough compression to start the engine. Does your car lost its compression? Is the car has blue smoke on exhaust muffler ? Do you need top up oil regularly? All these things show your car has problem with compression.

My 2003 Pontiac Sunfire well turn over but will not crank tried spraying gas in the air intake still will not start was running fine now it just wont start even replaced crank sensor and a couple other...

You mean it will turn/crank over, but wont fire.

Check for spark, most likely cause would be crank or cam angle sensor faulty.

Have you checked for obd codes? Is the check engine light illuminated?

2000 pontiac sunfire inst cluster shows padlock,car wont start engine turns,has fire and gas.was idling in neutral and died.how to remove padlock ?

Do you have a chip in your key? Some of these are not reading the chip and shut down on security. I think the only way to fix this is go to authorized GM dealer and get a new key. Please rate my answer so I get points awarded for it.

My 2003 sunfire wont start. Tried charging the battery, still wont start. (It's really cold outside) It does have command start (could that be the problem?)

If it is turning over but not starting, I would put it in a warm garage and let it thaw out for awhile or out gasline antifreeze in the gas tank and let sit for couple of hours turning the key on periodically to pump gas into libes with the deicer because it sounds like a frozen gas line. Let me know if we need to go further

Confirm your fuel pump is workingby listening for the noise it makes.. See if you are getting duel at the engine.The fuel pump is in the gas tank.

How to replace fuel pumpon 2003pontiac sunfire

Remove the gas tank (careful when taking it down. Fuel may spill out the top) and in the top is the fuel pump.It may be alot easier is you have a vehicle hoist and a lowering support for the gas tank.

Car wont start

if it backfired then there must be spark , (usually) i would suggest checking if there is fuel pressure (listen to hear the fuel pump when you turn the key to the on position) if you dont hear anything then you may have a fuel pump issue..
