HI,

My name is Ben. My dad bought this 1992 Hyundai Elantra 3 years ago. My sister was driving it home from work one day, she said she went over a bump and it quit. It's been sitting around for a year or two. There's 4 of us, and we can't seem to figure out what's wrong

Any ideas?

Hi Ben,

Before we get started with diagnosis I'd like for you to describe what all you have done, tried etc to get the car running. In as detailed as you can.

Also does it turn over and just not start.

And the bump if she can remember was it a hard jaring bump or like a speed bump type bump.
