Red face '96 RM Won't Start

Gas guage reads full, but i'm actually fairly low. No telling exactly how low being the problem we are all too familiar with. The engine tries to turn over but it just never catches. I know that's not a whole lot of info but that's all i can think of so just message if you need more info.

Any Ideas???

Re: '96 RM Won't Start

Welcome to AF!
In this situation I would try adding some more fuel to the tank to bring the level up and see if that helps. like you said you don't know how much gas you actually have in your tank, you could not have enough to start the vehicle. How has the car operated prior to this issue,(starting, driving, etc.)?

Re: '96 RM Won't Start

it's operated very well the only significant money i've had to sink into it is when i had to replace the ac compressor. however, the last time i changed the oil the engine has kind of a cough when i accelerate...but only for about fifteen minutes of driving then it goes back to normal. but other than that i've had no problems.
