Hello. my name is Dennis from New York. I just found myself a clean 2001 I30. the car is in good condition. This is the problem why I got it soooo Cheeaaap. It does not start at all. It cranks but that is as far as it goes. so i started the basic checkup: batt is fully charged>Starter is working>Took out fuel pump,it's working fine> all fuses in working order> dissabled aftermarket alarm>trottle body is moving>sprayed starting fluid and the car started right away and then stalled> removed fuel line by injectors and it has pressure when cranked. I'm at my last point on this car and maybe someone out there can help me out. thanx. :confused:

Spark test is essentially the same regardless of make. Do you have any trouble code? A scanner will help but you can refer to the 'sticky' link below on how to extract and decode trouble codes
