okay my girlfriends 2.4L Twin Cam doesnt want to start now. Its leaking fuel from the fuel regulator. So I replaced it and still it wont start. What the hell can it be?
GMR has got nothing on this
Did you bleed the air out of the fuel rail?
how do you do that?

you dont need to. trying to strat it a few times will take care of the air. how bad was the reg. leaking? it might have been coincidental that the reg was leaking. are you sure you have spark?
turn to run
Turn off
count to 10
turn to run
Turn off
Try to start. Repeat if necessary.
Also check the intake manifold. You may have a pudle in there from the intake manifold sucking in gas thru the vacuum line.

Okay I fixed the car.
The fuel regulator was leaking thus means its malfunctiong...so it flooded the cylinders with fuel and soaked the spark plugs wtih fuel. I removed the spark plugs and clean them off with some carb. cleaner. Replaced the fuel regulator and jump started the car. It work fine then I tried it off the battery alone and it wont start. So I bought a new battery and it still wont start.
So I tried the turn on and off procedure....left the key in the ON position for about 10 mins. then started it and it fired right up!

glad you got it started. just for future reference.....the fuel pump only runs for 3 seconds, so leaving the key on for 10 minutes didnt do anything
