So it was cold tonight and i went to start my car. After 2 minutes of warming up i tried driving it and since my driveway is on a hill, i stalled. Then i tried starting it again, but it made a sound like when you start the car when the car is already on ( for 1 second) Another try and the car turns over, but doesnt start. I got outside n smelled gasoline. it was parked on a slight hill with the front end raised a bit. Is it sparkplugs? Where are they located on a vg30dett? If it's not spark plugs, then what could it be? Sorry for noob questions and thanks for any input.

Could be the PTU. Does it re-start if you let it stand for a while then cut out again?

Yea you were right, it started right up the next day. Is that normal or is there anything that needs to be replaced?
