If the engine does not start, systemic troubleshooting should be performed. Two reasons can be an obstacle to starting gasoline engines: the lack of an air-fuel mixture should enter the cylinders and the absence of a spark between the spark plug electrodes should spark. Therefore, the first thing to check is whether fuel is being supplied at all. How this is done is described in the sections «Fuel system» And «fuel injection system».
Fault: engine starts poorly or does not start at all.
