Calli not starting but it is turning over

by dutchef » Thu Nov 03, 2016 2:47 am

Hi guys,

I went to pick up my daughter from school and everything was going fine. I waited for her and after she arrived I was going to drive us home but my Cally wouldn't start, dang :-(. The car was turning over but it was like it wasn't getting any fuel? I had a garage pick it up and check it out but the fuel pump and filter were OK. They have a sparkie looking at it now but he seems to be baffled as well? Does anyone out there have any idea what it could be? they were talking about the crankshaft sensor I believe but it sounds like they've gone off that idea. please help.

Hi!

Any lights on the dash during cranking? Have you done a paperclip test to check for ECU errors?
