I feel like the biggest idiot in the world. To make a long story short, my car has big problems starting. When i try starting the car the motor turns and everything sounds okay, but it just wont fire. Yesterday morning the car turned on right away. After work at 4 it wouldnt start. After trying to start it for over a half hour, the motor finally turned over. Put fuel system cleaner in, and drove around for awhile so everything seemed fine. It would start right up. I tried to turn in on today, and got nothing. The battery is fine, spark is fine, starter is fine...what is going on? I need some help here, so if anyone has any suggestions please help. I really dont want to have to go to Mitsubishi and pay $75 for diag.

ECU capacitors?
Is the fuel pump running when it won't start?

Do you know how to pull out the ECU? It's the gold box behind the radio.

ALL FIXED. I dont know exaclty what was going on, but i got the car running good, let it sit running with some fuel injector cleaner in the system, and now it runs perfect. Thank god I didnt have to buy new injectors, but then again, maybe that could have been fun...im always looking for a reason to upgrade.

I have 2 sets of na injectors for cheap if you want them. Just pick up a set and drop them in or send them in to get cleaned while you still drive your car.
