NO START ISSUES
Check for fuel,spark,timing and compression.
Easy deductable method -
If you have compression - then you have a problem with the spark, fuel or timing
If you have spark and compression then check for fuel (do not just listen for pump) Pull return line and check for flow, if you have flow then spray some starting fluid or wd40 in the intake and see if it fires.
If you dont have fuel out the return line then check the filter, if still no go then pump.
If you have fuel check the injectors or ECU
IF you dont have spark check the fuses, check the power tr module, check the cas, and of course the ecu.
If you have fuel and spark - check firing order or timing.
