Diagnosing intermittent no-start

Hi Will,

Please check for OBD codes at Port 2 & 6.
If you get any, clear them and see what codes remain.

That's where to start diagnosis. The ECU's may help you get to the fault.

Then you can try disconnecting the negative battery cable for ten seconds
and hook it up again, and see if that gets the car started. That clears
the memory of the ICU's and has worked here after sudden engine misbehavior.

Post back with your results.

Bill
