Why is my car not firing?

2. Spark plug wires: Check the spark plug wires to make sure they are connected properly and are not damaged. If they are loose, they will need to be tightened. If they are damaged, they will need to be replaced.

3. Distributor cap: Check the distributor cap to make sure it is clean and properly seated. If it is cracked or damaged, it will need to be replaced.

4. Rotor button: Check the rotor button to make sure it is clean and not worn out. If it is worn out, it will need to be replaced.

5. Ignition coil: Check the ignition coil to make sure it is working properly. If it is damaged, it will need to be replaced.

6. Fuel injector: Check the fuel injector to make sure it is working properly. If it is clogged or damaged, it will need to be replaced.

7. Fuel filter: Check the fuel filter to make sure it is not clogged. If it is clogged, it will need to be replaced.

8. Fuel pressure: Check the fuel pressure to make sure it is within specifications. If it is too low, it could be a problem with the fuel pump or the fuel pressure regulator.
