will not start
some suggestions:
-How does the engine sound when you crank it? Does it sound normal
or does it seem to spin a bit faster than usual, like no compression?
-Are the plugs wet? Wet plugs indicate the injectors are pulsing. A noid light flashing only indicates the electrical part functioning of an injector circuit not the mechanical part. Low or no fuel pressure will not allow fuel to squirt in.
-Did you check all cylinders for spark, how does the spark look?
it should be brite blue and be able to jump a 1/4" plus gap.
Finally check to see if the timing belt didn't jump a tooth or more. Use crank pully and cam sprocket marks for comfirmation. You can also remove dist. cap for approximate cam location, but it won't be precise. A compression gauge can also be used to confirm valve timing is off. No cylinders should be under 100psi.
Good Luck!
