Check fuel pump,filter,relay switch,fuses,etc. or spark plugs,wires and distributor cap.
Check for fuel and spark.
I would say counter-clockwise but if you take the distributor cap off and have someone turn the engine over as you watch the distributor you will be able to see which way it turns.
Without knowing the make and year it's impossible to speculate. Could be a low battery not spinning it over fast enough, a bad ECM, a broken distributor, a failed ignition coil or any number of other things -.
no that not it
the cam position sensor and ignition coil are inside the distributor. the crank position sensor is located on the bottom front of the engine, behind the belts on the left side.
check the distributor
take distributor cap off and see if rotor button is turning when crank over
If its turns over but wont start is probably the fuel pump. It happened to me, and since the fuel pump have benn replaced theres no problem anymore. The only thing is that the start is not that accurate like before but at least it starts.
I had the same problem. Check all of your spark plugs, if they smell like gas they are burned out. You should replace your spark plugs and check your distibutor, not the distributor cap. If that turns out to be the problem replace the distributor, distributor cap, and the rotor. If you turn the key to start the car, but nothing happpens, the starter's bad. If the car turns over but doesn't fire up, then the igniter/coil in the distributor might have gone bad.
My car does the same. Its the coils(spark plugs) or it could be the distributor cap.
Possible bad crank sensor on the distributor, possible bad oil pressure swith.
The distributor doesn't turn, the rotor inside turns clockwise.
distributor. If you hear any knocking or ticking, that's another clue.
Could be your starter.
If it turns over- Remove distributor cap and dry Spray coil and wires with silicone
check your distributor,you may need to replace
Check to see if it getting spark/fuel Check rotor
