No, I couldn't not tell difference
Last week i ordered my parts from 1A Auto, coilpacks, plugwires, serpentine belt and shocks, installed it all today, works great, thank you 1A Auto.
👍😁👍
That smacking of the gas tank just saved me a tow truck fee. THANK YOU SIR
Why can't all mechanics and people who work on vehicles be as good as this guy
This video is just in time. Thank you Thank you Thank you 1A Auto!!!!
Awesome videos as always! 🔥
Great education.
Thank you! Common since. Multiple options. Explained very well! Thank You
Interesting vid, there are more reasons than the basics covered... Injector relay, cam sensors, poor earth, becm/ecu comms, etc.. etc..
Wow! What a great exposition.
I love the way you talk, your posture and all.
You sound so intelligent.
Kudos..
Very knowledgeable and well presented
Nice video, gave me a couple of ideas, thanks!
Great video, thanks!
Watched 2 of your videos SUBSCRIBED! Great information 👍 thank you
I should check it out the fuses first. Thank you for your videos God bless you
Excellent video, cheers! 🙌🏻
Great Demonstration!
Thank you so much the info and you time !!
You can also hear if the fuel pump motor is working by removing the gas cap and putting your ear by where the gas is pumped in and listening for a buzzing noise while the ignition key is in the run position without the engine cranking. Also there could be a fuse an/or relay for the fuel pump that could cause the fuel pump to not function.
I couldn't tell the difference, but luv the training. Great job
Excelente presentacion. La forma de hablar fue con paciencia y directo al punto.
Thank you for the video!
Thank you helped me a lot my Mitsubishi lancer ES 2004 he has the same noise and I guess it's a spark plugs or the gas tank pump
Thank you for the troubleshooting suggestions! This afternoon my 1998 Ford Explorer cranked with no start. Checked owners manual for fuel pump fuse location. Fuse tested good (about 3 ohms.) Owners manual showed the fuel pump relay location in the same fuse box. I unplugged the relay and gave it a few taps against the car body in various orientations. Plugged relay back in, and car started up immediately when I cranked it. Probable cause: Relay stuck in open position. Drove car about 6 miles to recharge battery. Ordered new 5 pin relay from O'Reillys.
Hellp 1A Auto! Thank you for your channel. I learn alot from your tutorials. Your video on checking fuses is great, I am actually looking for relay testers to buy for my toyota 86. By the way, I hope that you are going to make a compilation of repair videos on an 86, especially repairs on its electrical components. More power to your channel. Subscribed!💯🍻👍
Muy buen trabajo muchas gracias
Do you have the procedure to remove/test the 2002 Buick Park Avenue electric windows, door lock, and mirror adjustment on the driver side? It has stopped working and the passenger side has now stopped, i.e., electric windows, door lock. How do I remove the unit/module? Where would the fuses for these issues be located? Thanks! I subscribed.
Thanks for your video. I have a 96 Toyota Camry 2.2 4 cylinder I replaced the timing belt, water pump, crank and cam sensors pulleys, alternator, distributor and the car still don’t start. Any suggestions? Thanks 🙏
Thanks for sharing your video👍❤️
Really helpful. Thank you
Very nice and clear explanation.
I have a question, what are the possible problems if my car starts but dies when I start moving it?
Great video you guys recently i ordered parts for my Toyota Camry love your guys shipping it is so fast and the parts are direct fit.
What if the battery light came on before the car started dying, and then you can no longer start it, but it still cranks, would it still be spark or fuel, could that be a main relay
Great info!! Thanks!!!
Very helpful video
Well explained video. Thanks 👍
that hitting on the gas tank worked you saved me u have noooooooo clue being stuck on the back road at night sucks ty my good sir
Great tips that I have never heard of
My car was cranking and taking forever to start. Changed fuel pump, filter and regulator last night. This morning started up perfect. 2nd time i started it this morning 3 hours later, it cranked forever then started. Sparks plugs coil packs and fuel injectors are all brand new replaced last week
Good video! I usually give 3 seconds with brake cleaner into the air intake and immediately start; if it runs a couple of seconds ...5 seconds, it means that the issue is in fuel - it is not getting fuel.

nice video. I have a Toyota sienna 2006 engine light that came on but I scan it says knock sensor fault. should I replace or should erase the code?
No difference. I have the problem, but if it sits a 1/2 hr after it won't start but cranks, then sometimes it starts. 2004 Toyota Corolla SE. I don't wanna change out fuel pump if it's not that. I did change plugs a year ago, and seen a mouse chewed some of the coating from coil pack wire. Might need new coil pack? But Tks for great Videos! Save slot of money DIY and your parts are A1 !!!! No pun intended! 😂
Hey thanks for the video. Dodge Ram 1500 the engine and red throttle Light is on. The thing cranks, but won't start. Will vehicle need to be jumped? Reprogrammed? Is the entire body dead (hopeless)? If you can give me a peace of information I would highly appreciate it.
Great video for a crank no start issue. Do remember, liquids do not compress.
Thank you for this. I have this issue in a toyota 1zz 1.8 and is a known common issue in older ones.
I am in hot weather and when the car is cool it starts perfectly fine and runs great.
However, if it is warm already, like if I stop to refuel, and then leave, it has a very rough start. This is especially true after stopping and starting it multiple times like if I have gone to the grocery store and then fueled up after that.
At that point it commonly does NOT start and I have to wait 30mins to an hour for the engine to cool down before getting a good fresh start.
This really helped !
Great video
thanks for the info. Can you help please. My 2000 expedition has been sitting for a year and half. It cranks but won’t start. It was working just fine before I parked it 18 months ago!!
My 16’ chevy Cruze had some electrical problems some of the fuses under the hood don’t have power to them.. i tested them. Some light up when contacted and some don’t. I replaced all the mini fuses and still not getting power when checked.. 2 of the turn signals, brake light, horn, power outlets don’t work and engine worn turn on. No crank at all. Also windows won’t roll down from front driver side and passenger, but the rear windows work only on their doors. Won’t work from the master control. But dash lights up and front lights work. Any suggestive leads to take?
Before you fire the parts cannon. Lift the car and check the Ground (Earth) strap low down on one side of the engine or the other (you can find out which side on Google). Down there they get exposed to weather and salt, corrode and break, usually where they bolt on. If your ignition system is grounded there and the ground strap is damaged/broken, it will turn over and won't start and you may have other mysterious electrical problems too. Its a VERY common problem often not considered until hundreds has been spent on unnecessary parts.
Your talking about wire attached to the gas hose neck because I just spayed my truck frame with casmoline and that wire has a bolt well that bolt got covered in Cosmo could that be why my truck cranks but Don't start fuel pump not running like in vid lmk any ideas y ?
Assuming your gas filler is at the back of the car I would have thought that earth point is for the rear lights any other electrical systems at the back. There will be several earth points around the car. Find out where they are located and check them all for good contact.
My 2001 chevy express starts right up, drive to where I’m going (distance doesn’t matter), get back in it start it up- it struggles to start. I give it gas it starts! I’ve been to two automotive repair shops, neither shop can figure out what is wrong with it. I did get a new temperature sensor cap which I didn’t need $300 later and a broken back window plus 2 broken ladder mounts. (Back window was replaced)
Can you help me- put me in the right direction of what I should do? Thank you so much for your video
Awesome video
Thanks for your simple answers!! Some other videos they explain to much that you get lost and also have a Califlower ears in the end!!😂😂😂😂

Wonderful technic, my car has same problem, I wish your technic gonna solve that
Hello, nice vid. I have a daihatsu sirion 2 with K3-VE engine and it stopped running all of a sudden. It cranks, but no start. I checked all the fuses/relays, they seem good. I checked the crankshaftsensor and it's giving me close to 2000 ohms. So that seems ok. I tested the harness with ignition switched on, no voltage. Any idea what that could be? I still have to check to camshaftsensor though. Regards
cuz it was weird lol... nice video. thank you. I learnt something new
awesome stuff
Hey guys- watch your videos all the time. 2003 tahoe. Turns over- no ignition. I thought it might be out of gas, even though it only showed low-not empty- so I put 2 more gallons into it. Still no ignition. I just had a tune up less than 5000 miles ago. All new coil.packs-plugs-wires. Etc. And I have absolutely no check engine code. Not pulling anything. Any thoughts?
I have a saturn sports sedan that likes to have issues the worst way possible it cranks no start atm the fuel pump wont hum, but it made a "farting noise when i shut the car off, now the car sounds like a lawn mower trying to crank over but dying, it has the engine light flashing when I try to crank it over. I am waiting on my reader to come in as a package I ordered one that is going to be connected to my phone. I wonder if I leave it plugged in and just have it on the car I can fix issues before they start coming as a problem.
Couldn't tell the difference I have the same issue 2002 honda Odyssey it will eventually crank but sometimes take a while I thought battery cables changed them then it still did it battery good I want to know if it is fuel pump or spark plugs or ignition switch or starter great video by the way cause I have had someone say fuel pump someone say starter someone say ignition switch all mechanics so I don't know which one
Nice video, my car starts in first crank if I stops in high rpm(>1000), if I stops in low (rpm
Thank you Sir
Thank you this was a now I know what I need to replace
Great video. I hope one of these explanation solves my Hyundai Elantra problem. It's been down for 2 weeks, cranking and not turning over.

My 2004 Toyota Land Cruiser sounds just like that. It cranks won't start. But after three tries it started and drove for two days then started not cranking up anymore just sits in my garage. What parts do you suggest I buy?
Excellent video thanks for you. great help.
When replacing the cam/crankshaft sensors, do you need to put them back in and screw it back in place? Or could you just click in the connection piece and leave it to test if it starts?
Now what happens when you have spark (new plugs also), adequate fuel pressure at the fuel rail, no codes and still just cranking?
I just had a nightmare of a time and I want to share my story with everyone so maybe they won’t make the same mistakes. TLDR: new fuel pump might have been no fuel and faulty fuel pump float. My 05 suburban stalled out while driving and it seemed to correlate with a bump in the road. Stranded I was luck enough to find a shop a few blocks away. Mechanic was nice enough to walk with me and give me a brief check. He brought starter fluid and after testing said bad fuel pump. I bought the cheapest eBay pump and just finished replacing. Mistake #1 I didn’t think of maybe my truck was empty. When I had everything apart I noticed little to no fuel but my gauge said I had just under 1/4 tank. And the only pump had some obvious signs of burn on the float connections. Mistake #2 the pump from eBay was not an exact match and I don’t know enough to say it will last. All is connected and first start was a bust but walked to the gas station filled, put 2 gallons in and it started and ran great but fuel gauge had not moved which I think is a good thing because I think my truck is finally reading correctly.

Question. So, if I want to boroscope my pistons, extracted sparks and see that the needed piston is in upper position. I would need to rotate engine crancshaft to move pistons. A good idea to use ignition and rotate crancshaft by trying to start the car, but to prevent engine from actually starting (most likely one side will have sparks and another will not). So, would it be a good idea to remove fuel pump relay and rotate the engine by ignition key, or should it be EFR? I have Sienna 2008 with 2GR-FE, if it matters.
I like this guy!
I have 1996 GMC pickup, Crank no start. No spark at the coil but new coil, ignition module, crank shaft position sensor, new distribtor, spark plugs and wires. Checking grounds now.
I have a 7hp diesel engine, recently my starter rotates the fly wheel but unable to rotate the fly wheel on the compression stage. What is the problem?
My car has these symptoms but once it starts is good. Is usually early in the morning when is cold.
Needed 💯💯
Good video
Hello....I have a 2005 jaguar s type sedan I know it needs a tune up but I'm not sure how many sparks plugs it needs...can you give me that info...also sometimes it starts like a charm but after driving it for awhile and I cut it off it won't start...please give me a few things that could be the problem.
Thanks.
Ms. Stephanie
Mine 1993 chevy will crank and try to start but won't. Got new plugs,wires,cap,rotor button, coil, and ignition module still does the same thing. Sprayed starting fluid into the TBI still does the same thing.
I had that problem with 2007 RAV4. I replaced the 12v. Battery and turn on normally.
I took off the air filter ,then put gas on a rag and had some one turn the engine over ran till the gas fumes stopped. The fuel pump was bad. Ether will let you do the same but I don't like to use it on gas motors just because it is said to be bad for motors if you spray to much ot one time ? The humming noise is the first step to check in my opinion.
Can you do a vid of ring and pinion replacement on a Jeep JK?
Is that a pickup truck ur doing coz I would appreciate it very much..coz my truck is doing the same and the battery kept on dying on me
That would be a crankshaft position sensor down by the starter I believe and doesn't sound like a fuel I had this problem 2003 Yukon
Having same issue with a 2010 Tahoe it does it randomly and is a pain to start and no engine codes
Appreciate it..working on the regulator and now no start it cranks
On a 97 Lexus ES300 that cranks but doesn't start, how would you fix it. I was told that there was no spark
1Aauto, please help, my 09 caliber long crank when is cold whether but when is like 75 80 90 degrees it starts right up normal with no long crank
Is there a crank sensor on a 1993 Buick roadmaster 5.7 liter?@A1 Auto
Hi, do you guys sell chevrolet spark 1.2 parts, my car just crank but doesn't start, it has a red dot in the dashboard, kindly help
Thanks 🙏
After replacing the fuel pump in my 2006 Jeep grand cherokee laredo 3.7 WK- Im now having a problem with a vapor lock and my new pump is making a ringing/humming noise off and on-is there a way to fix it with a inline check valve or inline filter of some sort. I have to release pressure on the fuel rail to re-crank it after it runs for more than 20 minutes/ which is a possible fire risk which makes it not safe to drive. Any suggestions?

I would love to change my spark plugs, tried absolutely everything. Garage I guess, so annoying when it should be an easy job.
I have a 98 k1500, I’m gettin spark and fuel but it will only crank. Any ideas?
I changed the fuel relay and fuel pump and I still don’t hear my pump turning on. Waiting for my main relay to come in and see if it’ll turn it on. Car Cranks. Won’t start if I spray starter fluid
1 is no fuel 2 is no spark , ive found when you have no fuel it almost sounds hollow and echos were as with fuel it almost sounds smoother like it might start.
Same issue, found problem within 10 seconds. First thing i sprayed a bit of starting fuel into intake and did not give a sign of firing, ruled out fuel pump. Then turned ign on i took a simple tester with a bulb in it, tested the fuses in fuse box and there was no power. The two bolts that hold the fuse box together threads were stripped and the power plugs under fuse box would lose connection. I replaced the bolts with longer ones and a nut. Problem was fixed. Oh the bolts that are in the fuse box have a locking washer on the back side, i put a deep socket over the head of the bolt and then tapped them out to replace them. Hope this helps.
My 2002 vx holden doing the exact same thing ?? Is that why it’s having this issue problem,
Got a long crank on and p0342 (camshaft code) on a 5.3 2004 Yukon changed out camshaft position sensor and still has same problem?🤔any suggestions?
I have a 04 accord v6, i recently changed the water pump, but my car cranks but doesnt start. I checked the fuel system, my sparks are good no check engine light, my key fob is good, my starter relay is good. My question, is my car not starting cuz of camshaft sensor because i changed the water pump and removing the camshaft pulley? Need help thanks
