I have replaced; gas filter, cleaned gas tank, I have put crank shaft position sensor. Tried to check fuses. The anti theft key-less entry I did not get with car, but I thought I had bypassed all that but it still will not start.

Hello,

When you turn the key to the on position without cranking the engine over do you hear the fuel pump prime for five seconds? Also, is the security light flashing?

Please let us know.

Cheers, Ken

Lights are flashing when I turn key on in ignition and hear fuel pump also injectors are pulsing. Also, I have replaced crankshaft sensor as well as the camshaft sensor. I have no fire to spark plugs relays and fuses are good. I am not sure what to do at this point any information would be appreciated. Thanks, roman11
