Hi,

When you have a crank no start condition, there are a limited number of things that can cause it. First, take a look through this link. It explains the most common causes of a crank no start.

If that doesn't help, you will need to check for spark and fuel to the engine. Here are links that explain how that is done:

Try these things first and let me know the results. Also, let me know if there were any symptoms prior to the no start.

Take care,
Joe
