My car has been running perfect ever since i got it, and all of a sudden today I went to go start it up and it will not start. The engine turns but it wont kick over. Does anyone have any clue with what this could be. Im starting to think its something to do with the fuel lines or something cause I dont smell any gas after i try to start it up a few times. Any help would be awesome.

I have a 2001 GA and it did the same thing. I had the feul pump replaced at over $500 and it did it again. Turned out to be the SECURITY system. When the car does not start and the SECURITY light is on you can reset the system by leaving the ignition switch in the on position after it does not start for about 10 minutes until the Securtiy light goes out. Then turn the ignition off for 5 seconds and it should start.
I had this happen to be 6 times in one week. I had a friend check the codes with a scanner but his scanner was too old or there weren't any. He cleared the codes anyway and I haven't had the problem for over a week now.

did this fix your car
my sister has a 91 ga
and it ran fine until she parked it for about three mo's
then she went to start it
and wouldn't start
after banging my head against the wall for about
a month
i finally noticed that the check engine light wouldn't
light up in the bulb test
i finally found
that the computers
main power wire was bad at the fuesable link part of the wire
replaced that been fine since
