Yup, sorry, I was working when I typed that - so the starter spins the belt...no problem there.
I see fluid in the fuel filter. Checked spark plugs...got spark. Air flow isn't impeded.
I suppose the next few things I need to check are:
1. I'm not hearing the fuel pump...it's only a few months old but I'll check it - I did check to see if it's getting power and I'm good there.
2. Once the fuel pump is verified I'll move on to the injectors to make sure they're working
3. Had some problems a few weeks ago with the ignition switch, my son got in - started it - then pulled the key out and then when put back in it wouldn't turn until I tapped it with a rubber mallet.
I went ahead and bought a new ignition switch with two new keys. As it stands now, when I turn the key and if I try to start for longer than a second or two the starter keeps going even when I stop turning the key...for a few seconds....so faulty switch. I really wanted to purchase one of those toggle switch with push to start - but I need to get it back into working condition before going forward with that.
4. Bad ground somewhere
