I have a 99 ford escort that apparently had bad grounding etc..which caused the battery to charge at 17v and the battery was constantly dead. One night while driving the headlights blew out and the car was smoking at the battery. It still ran the next morning, started it up and it began to shake alot and died. It also smelt of burnt wires or something inside the car. It hasnt started since. It just turns over but will not fire. The fuel pump works when hooked up to an alternate power source but doesnt seem to while in the car. Why wont my car start??????
