would the flywheel be a problem??? my throw out bearing was kinda bad already... can the clutch be a problem too.. cuz before the car was broke it made a lil metal hitting noise.. i just changed the starter today.. and it still doesnt crank up.. did a compression test... came out 170ish on all cylinders.... but part of this is because the car doesnt crank all the way.... any ideas???i checked all the fuses.. but how do u check the cam gears????

anybody know if a bad injectors or bad fuel pump be a porblem to starting up.. when i say bad.. i mean that it flows too much fuel... cuz theres plenty of fuel on the spark plugs when i pull them out... but this might be caused by the multiple times that i tried to start the car..

you sure your getting ENOUGH spark? cause if theres fuel all over the spark plugs....i would think your not getting enough spark.
