car wont start? im confused
i have fuel, have spark, all wires are hooked up. it cranks but wont start , the timing is fine but i'm confused on what else it could be. can anyone help>?
Is it manual, and if it is check to make sure the clutch buttons are being pressed in. There are 2 one that you can see and another that you'll have to search for on top of the clutch pedal. Hold in and turn the key. See if that will work.

If it cranks, that is not the case. It wouldn't be turning over if the clutch sensor was not engaging.
I know you say you have checked it, but do check again for your firing order and timing.
Has anything recently happened?
If still not starting, you may want to try a compression check. If you are sure you are getting fuel, and spark, and the timing is correct, the only other thing left in the equation would be compression to get it to run.
