Re: Car Will Crank But Wont Start And Stay Running

Check for fuel pressure... also get somebody to sit in the car. With the car off, lay under the car with your ear by the fuel tank... get them to turn the key to the on position and listen for the whir of the fuel pump. If you dont hear it, check the fuel pump relay by swapping another relay. If you still dont hear the pump, replace pump.

If the fuel pump is operating, you'll still need to check fuel pressure and compare to specs.
Finally, new plugs are good, but they need a spark to work, so make sure you have spark at the plugs.

What engine in the car and how many miles or kilometers are on it? Is it throttle body fuel injection, or mulitport FI?
