Hey my buddys alero just wont start. When he turns the key it turns over and a little exhaust comes out the back but then it dies right away. Any help would be great. Thanks -Nick-
spark, fuel,????? does it start then die or just turn over with no start... if you try too much you can burn out the starter as well.... check spark then for fuel...... fuel pressure next.. etc etc
was it running fine previously? and symptoms leading up to this? check for the basics... loose ground wire? condition of the fuel filter? spark plugs in good shape? Ignition system in good shape? wires? Coil(s)? I've had luck by disconnecting the battery for a few minutes, connecting it back up then trying to start it. good luck...
It just stoped working. Two days ago it worked and yesturday it didnt. When i try starting it it seems like it wants to start for a sec and then it just kills. I cant get it to fully start. Im going back over to his place today to check spark plugs and all that good stuff. -Nick-
Does it catch at first and then die out? Maybe the fuel pump is pressurizing when the key is turned and then it starts but can't keep up so dies right away. Just a guess. If it's the plugs it would have a hard time catching in the first place right?
