I am having problems with my car starting right now. So far the "no start" threads have helped a lot. Although I saw one that said check the Engine fuse...where is this fuse? In the engine bay or under the drives dash? Can anyone post up a picture or diagram? Thanks
 
Instead of searching for this magical engine fuse that will fix all if it needs replacing, check your battery for 12v and if you can start the car, check the alternator.
It should be putting out around 14v.
 
for real... check how many amps your battery has.. does it not start? or does it just flat out not crank?

if it cranks, check for spark first and foremost.. then fuel...

if it doesnt crank, check battery for voltage (~12v) and amps (3-5 ampres.. I think), then check your starting system.. I.E. ignition, starting system fuses and relays.. also, check the starter cables themselves.. I have had some problems in this area as well...
 
First of all. Thank you for your suggestions on what to do. But like I said in my first post, the "wont start" threads have been very helpful. It will crank just no start. I have checked the battery with a voltmeter already. I alredy checked for fuel and spark. Adjusted my CAS. Checked for burnt ECU. Checked for missing teach on the belt and belt placement. Now...can you answer my original question?
