Im pretty sure that's not your problem. Try turning your ignition key on but just before it starts and listen for a small humming sound from your gas tank to cye if it may be your fuel pump. If you cant here the sound try looking in your trunk on the right side and remouve the plastic cover on the side, that is you fuel cut off switch that is designed to cut the fuel sepply incase of a role over. Push the red button and try starting the engine. If that dosent work msg me so I can tell you the mext step to take.
