If you pour fuel into the throttle body and it starts, that means you are lacking fuel. Can you hear the fuel pump run when the ignition is placed in the "on" position? You my need to take off the gas cap and listen there as someone else turns the key. It will only run for a couple of seconds. If there is no noise, check to be sure the fuse is good, then be sure the relay is working, and then check for current at the plug at the tank. If there is current at the plug at the tank, replace the fuel pump. If the fuel pump hums with key on, check fuses to see if there is one blown that conteols the injectors. Let us know what you fiond.



Being way2old is why I need help from younger minds
