Check the basics. Fuel, ignition and compression. First, use a little starter fluid to see if it will run for a few seconds. With the help of a friend, spray a little starting fluid directly into the throttle body. You may have to open the air filter canister to get to it. While you give your car about a 5 second spray of starter fluid, have your friend try to start the car. If it starts, then dies when you stop spraying starter fluid, the problem is in the fuel delivery. I don't know how cold it is where you are, but you might have a little water condensation in the fuel line and it could be frozen solid if your weather is cold enough. If you suspect this, warm up the car by pushing it into a heated garage. (don't try to thaw it using a weed burner or anything like that. The car could explode and you'd get hurt pretty seriously) If the car starts and runs ok after sitting in a warm garage for at least 12 hours, put some fuel line de-icer in the tank and take the car for a drive. If that ISN'T the problem, get back with us after you've run some basic checks. Let's see what to look at next.
