Question type: Maintenance & Repair
Was driving fine and then tried to start it up the next day and it will crank but will not start. I can rev it while it is cranking but it doesn't stay running. Any ideas on what the issue could be?

Have an auto parts store scan it for free and fix accordingly. If you can't drive it there, do a self scan. Turn the key from Off to On three times, quickly, and stop at "On". The code will show at the odometer display. If there are no codes, it will show "done" when it's done. It may also be a fuel problem so listen for pump to prime up, check fuel filter (in front of the gasoline tank). The filter also contains the fuel pressure regulator. Also, if you can keep it running by working the gas pedal, the computer "forgot" it's idle speed and it will need you to work the gas pedal several minutes while it "relearns" it parameters. And. Thank You for your service. Stay safe.
It turned out to be I needed a new Idler air control valve. Thank you for your help sir
