Hi all, sorry for posting this if it has already been answered. but i am out of solutions , i did every possible diagnosis but the car just wont turn over, i changed fuel pump, bypassed the Fuel pump ECU, checked the relay, all of them are working , oh and i also got a brand new coils and sparkplugs but noting , i have been at it for a week now but the car just wont start, could this be a bad ECU? how do i test the ECU? Please Help. i have 4 days to move the car , unfortunately my Apartment management does not allow you to work on you car on your own parking space.

Any chance the battery is dead or semi dead...

battery is brand new. I was able to start the car. I just stepped on the gas and turn the ignition on and it started right up. It’s kind of wired tho. After that I didn’t have an issue starting the car up regularly but every Time the car sits for more than 8 hrs. I would have to step on the gas pedal agin to start it. Not sure what that is about.

It kinda sounds like the issue I had, but I have no idea if its the same... I did get my ECU rebuilt but it didn't fix the issue, it prolonged it... kinda. I stalled out on a freeway exit after the rebuild... For me it ended up being my ignitor on the driver side of course... I would get random no starts after a few hours until I discovered it after it started misfiring and it cooked both cats, took it home and parked till I figured it out.. I did post it on my build thread.
