Help car won't start!!!!!!!!
Wednesday, January 25, 2006 8:45 AM
Ok. Here’s what’s going on with my car
Yesterday I took my car to get it e-tested.
My mechanic changed the oil and changed the spark plugs.
My custom air intake had to be removed ( for the e-test)and the stock intake is back on the car
The Car passed the e-test without a problem.
The car was running perfect last night, and now this morning it won’t start….
I was lucky enough to get a ride to work from one of my friends.
The engine turns but it seems like the engine is not getting any gas.
I had the fuel pump replaced like 6 months ago (for a used one) but I can hear the fuel pump (buzzing) if I turn the key.

Any ideas What’s wrong?????????

Thanks.

Forgot to mention is a 1995 sunfire 2.2L

Did you change the Fuel Filter at the same time as the pump?

Is your theft light flashing?

Did it start and shut off? Or just won't start at all?

The fuel filter wasn't changed at the time and that was about 6 months ago, but as I said the car was running fine no stalling or anything .
The engine turns and tries to start but it seems like is either flooded or no gas is being delivered to the engine.

But is the theft light on in the dash when you turn the key on?

Ok, clear flood mode. Push the accelerator all the way down when you go to start it. It should clear the flood.

If the theft light is flashing, then it's Passlock thwarting you. Look at the Library FAQ to relearn it, if that's the problem.
