car wont start...any idea's why

my friends car wont start.

she has battery power, and the motor turns over, but dies immediately after.

c.t had it for 5 days and couldnt figure it out.

any idea’s guys?

any thoughts would be much appretiated.

I had the exact same thing with our old Caravan and it was a seized alternator.

Perhaps that or something else turning with the motor has seized, or the alternator (and possibly battery) may just be no good. You could have them check the charging system just in case they haven’t.

Of course, there are many other nasty possibilities unfortunately as well, such as some form of fuel starvation…

Good luck.

no gas

and are you saying the car buffs at Crappy Tire couldnt figure out the problem?

No way.

lol yeah i was shocked too.

thanks for the input guys

Do your 3 checks for spark, fuel and air. What have you done so far? Does she run with the thottle plate cracked open a bit? Need more info.
