Car wont start help please.

Could it be my fuel pump because when I went to start it would turn on for about 2 seconds then die. Also after I got gas I tried starting it and it would not start for about 5 mins. And it has been stalling on me for the past day or two.

Is the security light flashing, if so do a security relearn.

where is the security light?

or is the SES light on? could be a bad MAF sensor, cars do some funky things when those go bad

If it is that little red light it only flashes when th door is open

no, it is in the dash cluster turn the key on and you will see the word security light up.

I dont thinks its the maf because when It was running today it was running great until the stalled out

 

[CTKGP09]

thats what they do, unplug it and drive around and see if it stalls

might as well eliminate another possibility right?

Well, first thing first. You need to charge that battery because it sounds like you drained it pretty bad.:th_thumbsup-wink:

And as far as the root cause of your problems, I’m guessing it is the fuel pressure regulator.

You need to check for codes and the pressure at the fuel rail.

FYI – If you’re really serious about getting help from us a little more information would be nice. Like the year, model and mileage of your car for starters.:th_shakinghead2:
