Re: 97 golf won't start

A bad O2 won't keep it from starting. Make sure there is spark all the way through the plug wires @ the plug, not just at the coil wire. When the key is turned to on position the fuel pump should run for a few seconds, and for a couple seconds after canking. If not, check that first (relay, pump). If both those are good & it won't even try when sprayed with starting fluid suspect engine timing is off (timing belt alignment). Did it overheat?
