99 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder 2.4l gs cranks but wont start

Asked by Sierra Oct 05, 2017 at 09:18 PM about the 1999 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder 2 Dr GS Convertible

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have a 99 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder 2.4L GS that will not start. My
boyfriend replaced the timing belt 6 months ago. Has been running fine till
recently. We ran her codes and she read cam sensor. We ended up
replacing that, but still she would not start. We checked the timing belt to see
if she jumped time but she is still aligned correctly. We replaced her spark
plugs also. We ended up replacing the crankshaft sensor as well. Still
nothing. SHE IS GETTING SPARK AND FUEL, BUT NOT STARTING.
Anyone know what it could be?

Spray some starting fluid (ether) in air breather and see if it tries to start up. Just before and while turning engine over. It may have fuel and pump is fine and can hear it turn on but the injectors may not be opening.
