Why won't it start?

Asked by Jlowry555 Nov 16, 2015 at 10:46 AM about the 2007 Mitsubishi Eclipse Spyder GT

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

I have changed valve cover gaskets, ignition coils,
spark plugs, fuel pump, and battery. The car turns
over and sputters like it wants to start but it won't.

my 2002 GT eclipse spyder would turn off. by it self. if I used the ignition (starter) to try to start it! it would not. but if I was rolling and I popped the clutch it would start every time. it turned out to be the timing belt sensor.

Could be crankshaft position sensor, camshaft sensor, or distributor if you're getting fuel but no spark.
