Help! Car won't start - battery works (ie seat moves up, lights come on and everything), but engine doesn't even try starting.
Any ideas on the possible causes? My gas gauge said I had about 23 miles left to go before empty. If it runs out of gas, does the engine not even try to start? I also just had my transmission rebuilt last month, so could this problem be related to that?

 

Why not add more fuel and try then?

 

Hi Katprofitt -

Any luck with your jag?

 

The good thing if it’s the fuel pump, there’s no need to drop the tank or cut anything. Just remove the ~8” cover over the fuel under the rear seat on the passenger side.

Before doing all that , check the usual suspects & see if the pump is getting power. These pumps are notorious for failing.

Good luck.
