my baby wont start :(

i posted up some problems i had before got some good ideas from some of the members but im having more problems with my engine

i got a 91 Cavalier

i know the a/c compressor is seized so i got a different sized belt made for no a/c so i have that on now all the other wheels are fine crack is fine now the engine turns but still wont turn over the car has a full tank of gas new battary new spark plugs im just stuck lol if u guys could help i would be so very greatful its my first car my baby and i dont want to trash it lol

loosen one of the plugs on the distributor enough to see if the spark from the wire jumps to the distributor first you will need 2 people for that then come back here (DONT GET SHOCKED)

ya ive tryed that one before everything works but the engine still wont turn over its very strange lol

check fuel pressure

i dont wanna sound like a complete n00b but i am lol how would i check the fuel pressure and how would i fix it if something is rong?

well you can get an instrument that you plug into the fuel line on the engine and it measures the pressure, I'm not sure the specs. But if this is the problem, you have to change the fuel pump in the gas tank...which is, taking the whole gas tank down and replacing the pump...not really an easy job

lucky me im never gonna get ma car fixed LOL

obvisouly, take it to a mechanic...it'll cost an arm and a leg, but if it gets you back and running, and you can't do it yourself, its definately worth it.

take it to a mechanic and have them check it but not fix it, if its the fuel pump you can do it pretty easy and a new one shouldnt cost anymore than 80 bucks

yeah replacing a fuel pump is easy. just need wrenches

LOL, you need a lot more than 'wrenches'...

You need to know for sure you actually have a fuel problem. Try starting with ether and see if it will run. Have seen simple problems like coolant temp sensor in no-start situations.

ok, if you can turn the key over and they car tries to start, but never 'ignites', that is definately i fuel issue. OR, if it doesnt even turn at all, and the lights (battery, seatbelt) turn on when u turn the ignition over, your battery is good. Problem probably is the starter itself.

no, i've replaced two fuel pumps. and all i needed was socket wrenches to take the straps off the tank. its as easy as replacing the air filter.

I dont know if you are still monitoring this thread, but i had the same problem with mine. Turned out it was the crank sensor. Replaced it and runs like a champ. Hope this helps.
