My car quit running I because of the symptoms started maybe the electric fuel pump I've changed it, and it still won't start. it turns over smoothly but won't crank. I'm thinking crankshaft position sensors my next fix and going through the process of elimination. I don't know where to find it on the vehicle and how easy it is to access.
