not starting
I have a 1995 Mit. Mirage ..I parked this car a few months ago and it ran perfect....I go out to start it the other day and it wont start at all cranks but doesnt starts. I've changed the distributor cap and rotor spark plugs and wires and even the battery and still it wont start .....its getting spark and the air flow is good and it even flood out when trying to start it.....does anyone know what else i can try?......

well after attempting to start the car pull the sparkplugs back out they should be a little wet with gas, dry them off, disable the ignition by disconnecting coil, and squirt some oil in the cylinders and crank the engine over with the plugs out of it now reinstall plugs, reconnect the coil and see if it runs, this will help bring the compression up if it has ben setting awhile, could be bad gas or even a bad fuel pump leaving a car set for a long time really takes its toll on the fuel system, if the above doesnt get it going i would suggest towing to a shop.
