Are you getting spark and fuel? Does the engine turn and it just won't kick over?

yes it wont kick over you think something isnt hooked up correctly?

Possible. Check your coil and your battery connections first. Then check your fuel pump fuse.

z32r34 · 07-31-2012, 03:34 PM

ok where is the fuse driver side?

Most likely. Not sure where it is on a MP3.

i hecked no pump fuse on driver side do you think bad coils and plugs could be a problem?

you need to make sure you have spark. it may not kick over bc you dont have spark. check your plugs, check your wires (or coil packs if thats what ur car has) make sure your connections are properly seated.
