Good morning,

Does the starter work and crank the engine?

Can you hear the fuel pump run with the key on?

Does the tachometer move up a little while cranking?

As much information is appreciated so I can help you.

Yes, when I put key in ignition everything sounds like it should, it’s just not engaging.

We are not getting anywhere.

Can you upload a video of when you try to start it so I can see and hear it?
