anyone???

 

is the motor turning over when you try to start it ? If its not turning over most likely the motor is locked up...

If it is turning over then check the oil and see if its a light Tan, Cream, brownish white color, if thats the case, you have water mixed in with the oil, poor new oil in the car, run it for a few hundred miles, change it again, id keep doing that till you see the oil back to normal. I had an Acura Legend that did the same thing, Checked the oil and that was the case. With water mixed in. It wont work properly. Not saying this is your problem but just check to see. Wont hurt to try and see....
