try the main relay under the hood. its a 100 amp relay. recently had one blow when wife hooked up battery charger backwards. if it is , its 75 bucks for the relay. my advice do like i did and solder the contacts on the relay. it was the last thing i checked. good luck.

Hit up www.probetalk.com

you will get answers faster.

give us info though, like what does it do when you try and turn it over? does the engine try to crank and start??? it could be that there is no fuel pressure, check the fuel pressure at the rail. make sure you have spark, check the distro and rotor. plugs and wires, inspect all of these things...


More detail is really needed. but yea go to www.probetalk.com for answers.
