Car wont turn on.
I week or two ago i was driving and my car just shut itself off the rpm gauge went out and the car slowly turn off you could only tell cause you coudl hear the motor keep going. Well i thought the timing might have slipped so i check the ignition timing and the timing belt and its all fine, the car still will crank no weird noises it just wont get to that igniting stage, but after trying to turn it on for a while i noticed i didnt smell any fuel at all none but the car has half a tank of gas, would something going out in the fuel system cause this? if so what? please any help is needed.

no fuel = no ignition
maybe your injectors are clogged or something......
Its too vague for anyone to diagnose, might as well take it to someone to have them look at it

it helps to know what engine/car you're running. The ECU.. with certain one you have to use a jumper to get the ECU to flash CELs if there are any. You said you weren't getting sparks.. check your dizzy rotor/cap.. are your plugs properly gapped? More info would really help.
