my car turns over but wont start

Sent to Car Experts December 25, 2005 3:11 a.m.

My car turns over but doesnt start. It is a 2001 Mitsubishi Diamante. The battery is a good battery only 2 yrs old. 2 weeks ago i had a remote starter put in the car. It turns over strongly but wont start. I called the shop that put in the remote starter, they had me put the key in the ignition and turn the key to the "on" position for 15 minutes then try to start it but it didnt start.

I am in Michigan, the weather has not been too cold the past couple days.

Optional Information:
2001 Mitsubishi diamante 6 cylinder

You need to check the fuel pressure (with a gauge), spark at the plugs, And injector pulse once you know witch of these is missing we can begin to address your no start problem.

Be sure to check all 3, because one or more may be missing and knowing the combination, makes it easier to diagnose the particular cause.
