  • maybe your alternator is bad and is not chrging the battery.
  • test your tps sensor it is located on the throttle body. or tap on it wile trying to start. does the motor crank? are you getting fuel pressure?
  • Make sure you're getting fuel. Find the fuel rail. On the fuel rail there should be a small cap. Remove it. Beneath the cap is a fitting (Schrader valve) that looks like a tire valve. Put a rag around the outside of the valve and gently depress the stem with a screwdriver. Fuel should ooze out for a split second. (in checking for pressure you will have de-pressurized the system). If no fuel whatsoever comes out, you'll need to put a fuel pressure gauge on the fitting to be sure that you have low or no fuel pressure. Any method other than the gauge would be dangerous. If you determine that there's no or low pressure, the trouble could be one of the following: Clogged fuel filter. Bad fuel pressure regulator (also on fuel rail). Delayed trip to gas station (you're outta gas) Non functioning injectors are also possible. Put what's called a "noid" light on each injector to see if they're functioning electrically. I doubt that all of them are clogged, although I suppose it's possible.
