How to Diagnose an Engine that Turns Over and Cranks But Does Not Start - Crank No Start Diagnosis

Here is a step by step procedure on how you can Diagnose a Crank no start condition. In order for an engine to run, you need a Spark, Fuel, Compression and the ability for the engine to take in Air and push out Combustion Exhaust. In this video I go over how to check all the components and sensors responsible for the ignition system, fuel system and also tips and tricks to narrow down your search.

The first thing to look for after finding no spark at a spark plug is to check the spark plug gap. This was an expensive mistake I made years ago. Spent over $1500.00 at a shop once and they didn't fix the problem either. It was the spark plugs. They were very worn.

[@charlesdowns1691]

I can usually check bad plugs with vacume gadge.if needle floats around 2 points = plugs mainly

[@jamesdiehl8690]

How do you check the relays in your truck. Fuses you can pull out and look to see if the wire inside is broken. Relays are little metal cubes in the fuse relay box. You have to get a mechanic to check those with test equipment. My vehicle is at home at won't start. Mechanics are at shops and dealerships. If I can find out what's wrong I won't have to call them.

[@spelunkerd]

That MAF sensor cause for no spark would be a confusing diagnosis if the codes don't help. Nice review.

Great video. Sometimes the only way to find why a car won't start is the process of elimination which is what you did very well. I have a crazy problem and I'am about ready to take it to a pro. The problem is that the car will start and then die. I first changed the fuel filter and then the fuel pump, but no help. I did find that if I continued to try to start it several times it would stay running with the check engine light on. If I let it idle for about 5 to 10 minutes the check engine light goes out and it runs great. I can drive it to the store shut it off go shopping come out and it starts right up. In fact I can drive it all day like that, but when I shut it off for the night it's the same thing no start the next day. This has happened every day for about a week. I've tried different things like cleaning the start control valve.( The valve that opens to allow air to pass around the throttle plate until the car starts), I also cleaned the throttle bore. I took it to oreillys to have the fault codes checked, but the computer would not communicate with the OBD 2 tester. I would appreceite any help. Thanks

But in my continual attempts to get my car started I burned out my Starter. New Battery, New Starter and I still have a Crank No Start issue. I think I do smell a bit of fuel when it tries to start.

my wife's 1998 acura el 1.6 was parked and wont start, i checked for sprk there was none, changed the distributor, now i have spark, was able to get it to run normaly, went around the block parked it, my wife tried to start it maybe 2-3h later and wouldnt start anymore. note that before it stopped running somtimes it would crank for a couple turns before starting. so went and checked for fuel pressure after the fuel filter and there is pressure and when i checked the plugs for spark i could smell gas when my wife was cranking it while i was looking for spark, so at this point i have no idea. somtimes when i crank it i can feel the engine trying to start. could it be the ignition timing, i did my best to mesure the marks on the old one and tried to place the new one in pretty much the same spot. there is a check engine and codes are as follows P0118/P0505/P0138/P0420 hope you or one of your awesome viewrs can help, thnx!

Awesome!!! U helped me to discover that I don't need a coil nor a igniter on my 1991 4runner v6. I started first with the coil cus I was sure that was the problem. I was wrong. Then I checked my spark plug cable for piston #1. It sparked very weak & inconsistent. I won't assume it's the distributor cap or rotor because I've barely put together a complete rebuilt 3vze engine. My problem may be in installing my distributor one spline off and causing it to be out of timing. Or my timing belt may be off by 1 tooth/spline on either a camshaft sprocket or the crankshaft sprocket. But this video really helped with my no spark condition. Thanks.

[@jerrybarnes987]

If any shade tree mechanical are on here maybe they could help me . I finished the video to no avail. I checked for spark and it was good, it still wouldn't spark with starter fluid and it doesn't sound like compression issue and it drove perfect beforehand. Brand new mostly everything. New transmission fairly new engine. And most sensors replaced recently.

My 2004 Ford Ranger XLT 3.0L (75K miles) will NOT re-start on a hot / humid day. When cold, or first start of the day, it fires up and runs great. But If I shut it down after driving around a bit, the engine will crank normally, but will NOT start, no matter what. I've been stranded a few times now. I've changed out the spark plugs, fuel pump relay, the coolant temp sensor, the thermostat and put in fresh coolant. Checked the inertia switch, it seems ok. No blown fuses that I can see. I asked my local Autozone if they could pull some codes for me, they said they wouldn't touch it unless the Check Engine light was on (which it isn't). WTF. When trying to start it hot, I watched the RPM gauge, it seems to stay at 0 until the engine coughs (without starting), then it indicates a few hundred RPMs, so it seems like crankshaft sensor is working. I popped the gas cap off and turned the key on, didn't notice any primer pump hum / noise, but maybe too much outside racket to tell. So, ok - I was thinking maybe the fuel pump / fuel pressure, but once I get the truck running, it stays running fine. I would think that a bad fuel pump / pressure would cause it to stop running at some point, or at least cause it to be sluggish. But when it’s running, everything seems fine, you’d never know there is a problem. What is causing this? Why are hot / humid days a problem? Any suggestions...?? It's driving me nuts. HELP!!

I forgot to tell you. My vehicle apparently has a broken timing belt. You may not get a spark but there may be nothing wrong with the ignition. On this exact model, you want to consider first if the fuel pump has failed and then you go on to the timing belt and the ignition system. Later models with this engine through no longer had a distributor. If you have a distributor, it is much more likely that a non-run condition is due to the ignition system.

[@coconutcrawler5650]

PIANOSTYLE100, jimthecarguy has a video, "Car cranks but will not start." Ford ranger had a faulty inertia switch. I guess it's a safety switch which is supposed to shut off the fuel line to the engine in the event of an accident, preventing accidental fires from being fueled with a leaking fuel line.

[@electricaljunky]

Great video. Thats correct. On some older vehicles that the tachometer is hard wired to the coil or part of the ignition system, the tach will or should flicker just a bit when cranking the engine provided everything is working like it should. On some of the new vehicles that is not the case. Also, very good information on the crank sensors. The two wire sensors are magnetic pulse generators and the three wire sensors are hall affect sensors. Some hall affect sensors dont get battery voltage. It might be 5 volts, 8 or 9 volts with the key on and cranking. Keep in mind, some computers need to see the cam and crank sensor in sync with eachother when cranking the engine over to fire the ignition system depending on the vehicle application. Another good way to check for a base engine mechanical/incorrect valve timing problem causing a no start condition is to put your hand over the throttle body air tight and have an assistant crank the engine over. The engine should only suck air in. If at anytime it blows air out of the intake, then you know the engine is out of time. Same thing with the exhaust but it should only blow out when cranking. If at anytime the engine sucks air into the exhaust system while cranking, the engine is out of time. Great video thanks for sharing!
