SOUND LIKE PROBLEM IN THE HEATER CONTROL MODE SWITCH FAULTY OR HEATER AIR DOOR OR MOTOR FAULTY.

Did you check fuses and relay, they should be listed in owners manual. They will tell you which one is for the starter or any other problem, plus the location.

The fuel pump cut off relay is located behind the passenger side kick panel.

It takes three things to make an engine run. Fuel, spark and air. If you have fuel and spark at the cylinder, there's no reason it should not start. One or the other is missing. The only way to tell if the fuel and spark are reaching the cylinder is to pull a spark plug. Try to start the engine then pull a plug. If you are getting fuel, the spark plug will be wet and smell of gasoline. If it's dry, no fuel is reaching the cylinder. Put the plug wire back on the spark plug and lay the plug down where you can observe it while cranking the starter. If you are getting spark, yo will see the voltage arc across the tip of the spark plug. Perform this test and find out which one is missing and then you can trace down the problem.

MILES? CAN BE A PLUGGED HEATER CORE, HEATER CONTROL VALVE? ARE THE HEATER HOSES HOT GOING INTO THE FIREWALL??

Hi! This can be caused by a faulty TPS (throttle position sensor). If the TPS is faulty the car may not start, only cranks. Try to run a scan tool too for specific fault codes. Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa!

They are taper roller bearings, when new something like 8 or 10 pound feet, used ones tigten until only a little play exists (if you have steel wheels leave the wheel on and it is easy to feel the play even if packed with fresh grease) If you overtighten they will growl and overheat and fail

It will no dout be the water pump for the heater, this located on the passenger side of the car, under the bonnet, it is very close to the bulk head, they can be got via ebay quite cheep and are an easy job to change.
