sounds like you are not getting fuel? Check into your fuel pump, relay, wiring, filter, etc)
What year and engine? Do you hear the fuel pump hum for a couple secs when you first turn the ignition on?
Hey Rand, when I first turn the key, i hear a humm / clicking sound. In checking the filter, should I disconnect the end opposite the filter away from fuel source?
evan
humm = Fuel pump
clicking = Fuel Pump relay, Ignition System Relay
on the filter, i wouldnt think it would matter, but i always disconnect the fitting closest to the pump first, so teh sediment doesnt backwash into the pump.

Hey Rand, sorry it is a 1973 and I think is a 1.7 converted or bored out to be a 2.0.
Okay, just took off one hose from the fuel filter got some drainage. tried to start car and some gas came into a cup i had underneath the filter. when i reconnected it the car almost started but did not quite make it. Do fuel filters get clogged that quickly?
