I have a problem with starting engine last night. Mobile mechanic look to engine and cannot found something wrong, he say needed to see car in shop.

Sorry for my english, maybe on this video record you can found problem reason with start? Thanks!


In tube in front of engine fuel available.
 


Just to check the MAF and to perhaps rule it out, unplug the Mass Airflow Sensor (MAF) on top of the throttle body and try starting it.

You may have to pedal it to life a little and if it starts without it, you may have a bad MAF sensor. If it does start and you plug the MAF back in and try starting it again and it doesn't, then it's the likely failed part.

You say you have fuel pressure at the fuel rail so that's good.
