Check for a clogged catalyst converter. If vehicle was running you could start vehicle at night and look at converter to see if it was turning cherry red but since not running remove exhaust pipe in front of converter then try starting vehicle if it starts converter is clogged.

First, was it a sudden onset problem? or did the problem develop over a period of time..? if the 2nd is true...did you notice poor performance prior to the issue you describe above. (sluggish,poor fuel mileage, errattic starting?) If it was a sudden onset problem did you hear or notice any loud bangs, pops misfires etc? Answers to these questions will help us point you in the right direction to start going in
