Wonder if you are having the same problems as anne and you have tried all of the following, but still are unable to start the vehicle? What would you suggest. We have already replaced the crankshaft position sensor, we checked for spark, fuel and compression...all seemed to be fine. We also removed the oil cap and attempted to start the car to see if the cams/pistons were turning...they were. We are unsure of what steps to take next. We had replaced the cv axle before we started having problems with the car and we are afraid we might have pinched off a fuel line or knocked something loose. The old axle was hard to removed and we used a crow bar for some extra leverage????

You could not possibly have passed all those tests or the car would be running. At least one or more of those functions is not present.

Spray some carb cleaner down the throttle body & see if the engine will start & run for a few seconds on that... It's normal to use a pry bar to pop the axles out, there really isn't a whole lot down there to hurt and as long as you are using common sense that shouldn't have contributed to the problem........
