So it does not start but cranks I just replaced the spark plugs and no go I also tried starting it with quick start but no go either so I went to the next step if all spark plug has power and yes so I crank it and a strong odor of gas coming from the engine also it may leak Thro the exhaust anyone help ??

 

Welcome to Yotatech.

Which engine are you working on?

Do you see any fuel leaking out anywhere in the engine bay?

 

If all you did was replace the spark plugs, what COULD be wrong?

First, check that you haven't mixed up the firing order. (If you don't remember the firing order, we'll have to know make/model/engine/.... to help you.)

Next, check that the plugs are firing. Put the inductive lead of your timing light on each plug wire. If the light flashes, you've got spark.

Is the spark at the right time? Since you've got your timing light out, check the timing (hard to be exact with no start, but you only need to get it close).

 

Yes it was leaking thro the exhaust pipe down below the car

 

And I searched the firing order and re orderd the wires to the corresponding spark plug and still no go it was wanting to start when I changed the spark plugs so when I saw the old ones they were black so I guess I was running rich but when I was off-road it just stalled on me but before that the whole day it was fine no issues at all

 

Im working on a v6 3.0 that’s all I know

 

So it was starting before you put new plugs in?

 

It started but then I’d put it on drive and died but I’d put it on reverse and it go slow so then when it died it wouldn’t start back up this is before the new spark plugs

 

It wouldn’t start but it would crank

 

Soo I might be thinking that my fuel filter is clogged cause the intake thing is dry af so I’m gessing it’s the fuel filter
