And yes, its fairly common for a car to run perfectly until they don't run at all since many components do not suffer a gradual degradation in performance, but instead fail like a light bulb.
I disconnected the MAF sensor still won't start. Im pretty sure I hear the fuel pump from behind
The dash.when I turn over the motor I can spell gas like its getting full but do spark.i changedvthe crank sensor today with no change.
