My car wont run - changed the spark plugs and crankshaft sensor

Cars require three things to run.Spark, air and fuel.Take out a spark plug ,ground it to the engine,isolate yourself from the plug,and have someone crank the car over.Since the plugs are new they should work if not you have an ignition problem.If you have spark pop out the plugs and squirt some gas into the combustion chamber,replace the plugs,and crank the car .If it fires for a couple of seconds and then dies you have a fuel delivery problem,such as a bad fuel pump. I empathize with you ,a no start can be very frustrating but the above gives you a place to start Let me know how you make out,good luck.

My 1999 expedition wont start. your guy said it may be the pump, the the fuel shut off switch then the relay. not any of the above. whats the problem?

ok first check for fire at spark plugs if there is no fire then your problem could a sensor could be a crank or cam sensor or disconnected wire, check all your fuses, inside engine compart. and (inside the car) you need 3 elements for the engine to run, fuel,air and fire, if one of those is not present then your car wont start, it will turn over but wont run.

Change spark plugs and now car wont start.....1994 ford tarus

Do you have the "firing order" correct? In other words, is each spark plug wire going to the same cylinder it was on before you changed the plugs? If you have done nothing else but changed the plugs then this is the most likely problem.
If when you try to start the car it backfires through the exhaust or backfires through the intake. Then this " IS" the problem. Good luck.

Need firing order diagram.. wont start

remove the dizzy cap, crank motor over to find out the rotation of the rotor. Remove the no.1 spark plug and bring no.1 piston up to top dead centre on compression stroke, mark side of dizzy body where the end of the rotor points to, replace dizzy cap and see which lead it lines up with.
that will be your no.1 lead, find the firing order and put the leads back on the dizzy cap in the direction of the rotors rotation, run those leads to the corresponding plugs and it should start.
