Thread: Beyond clueless

    Beyond clueless

    A couple of weeks ago my car was running just fine, until I pulled into my driveway at which point it just died. I tried to start it back up and it did nothing but crank. I finally figured out I had no spark. I replaced the coilpack. Same thing, no spark. Then I replaced the CAS. The car started up and shortlly after died! And now it will just sit there and crank but not start! SO now I have spark, but no fuel. I have fuel to the rails so I assume that my injectors aren't firing?

    Here's a video of me testing the spark. That should good enough spark to star the car? correct?
    Also, in the video, what is that noise right before I crank it and right after. It happens when I turn the key to accessory

    Just to start eliminating things, did you check all fuses under the hood? Can you verify that the pump is working?

    I did check all the fuses under the hood. They are all good.

    I tested the fuel pump two weeks ago, and figured out I had fuel to the rails.

    I'll check again later though.

    Check your resistor pack, resistors in the ECU, and all corresponding wiring, also check to see if you've power to the injectors.

    Hold up. Do NAs have a resistor pack?

    Been down the replace things road. The basics are fuel, air and spark. You have spark, you need to verify the rest. The manual has tests for all these; but a quick run down is pump, filter, injectors. Check the simple stuff first.
