Hi, My battery is now dead from trying to get it started. The list of things I have fixed already are as follows: fuel pump, did a tune up, harmonic balancer, all the stuff behind the harmonic balancer, crank shaft sensor, coils for spark plugs and it does have gas in it.
It all started while I was driving and while on the highway it slowed me down and came to a stop on the side of the road and left me stranded there. Still can’t figure out what is wrong with it. Help me please. As this is my only transportation I have right now. Thank you in advance for your help.

Couple things. First can you get a recording of what the vehicle sounds like when it is trying to start? Also, did you replace these components trying to fix this issue or was all that done prior to this issue?

Lastly we need to start with checking for codes to find out if the ECM is telling us what it is seeing. This sounds like a timing issue so I am hoping we have a code that points us in that direction or the correct direction if that is not it.

Let us know what you find and we can go from there. Thanks
