Hi everyone, Well after fixing the things I thought was wrong another problem has come up. For about the last week the car has been harder and harder to start. Finally last night it would not start when my son was coming home from work. It seems the fuel pump works have the smell of gas. Could it possibly be the Ignition module. So far have changed the oxygen sensor, all the fuel injectors, plug wires, and temp sensor. Thanks Dan

Hi flanman, hello all,

You will never know if it's good or bad until you check it's pressure.

It could also be that one of those parts you replaced was DOA, except none of the above would cause the symtoms you've described.

The question should be: Could the ECM be the problem? To which the answer is no.

From the little information you've given (and have spread through 7 threads) the problem could be any one of about 160 different parts that has failed or worn out.

Were you planning on replacing all 160 (or more) parts one by one until you get lucky?

At your skill level I would pay someone to diagnose it and possibly only replace one more part.

Regards, Norm
