Stalled it, Won't Start.
 

I had the camaro sitting outside today because I had to work on the truck. It snowed a little bit, just enough to make the driveway a little slippery. When I wanted to put the car back, I drove it to the end of the driveway, and goosed it to slide it into the front lawn so I could trade places with the truck. Anyhow, it stalled, and now it won't start. Just cranks over.

Any ideas on where to start looking?

What year car,v-8 or v-6?

1996 V8 Lt-1 Stock with cat- back exhaust and K&N cold air intake

6 speed

It still won't start. Cranks just fine, I charged the battery of course. It's in a heated garage, so it's not the cold. fuel pump was squealing a few months ago, but we've been driving it now an then.

My normal procedure for a no start is to check fuel pressure, if ok check for spark, if ok check for signal to the fuel injector.

Fuel pressure gage can be borrowed from most parts store

Spark testers can be bought from most parts stores for under $10 ($4 ish at harbor freight)

Injector noid lights are a little pricey but should not cost more than $30 at most parts store ($30 at HF will get you a kit covering many cars.) Be carful with this process, don't use a basic text light or a voltmeter. If either draws too much power it can fry the PCM. This is why noid lights exist.

You should be able to find YouTube "how to" videos on all the above.

Thanks. I wasnt really sure where to begin. Once I know what a problem in a car really is, I can get in and change out the parts.

Well if the fuel pump was making noise they are only good for a few hours of run time after that. But the above will just show you a general direction, there should be more test once you know which system has failed. On cars this old there is almost as much chance that this is a wiring/connector problem as there is for bad parts.

Lovely...I know where the wire is to jump start the fuel pump, so I'll see if it turns the pump on at all.

wheres the gas gage at,,, lol, sure you got gas, fuel pump sucking air can make a different noise. could squirt a bit of gas or starting fluid in the throttle body and see if it tries to run. if so its a fuel problem.
