2001 Mustang LX won't start	Sign In

for a while now my engine has been making a knocking noise on acceleration and the service engine light has been on; the other day I couldn't get my car to start. The car cranks and turns over very well, just not catching and starting. Not sure if both problems are related, I'm just not really sure where to begin. Could it still be a bad starter even though it's cranking just fine? Fuel pump? Fuel filter? Any checks I can do to try and isolate the problem a little better? Any help is appreciated!! Please help! Thanks in advance!!

We sorta need to know if it is missing fuel or spark. Without knowing these, we are spitting against the wind. If you can get the fuel pressure reading, and be sure there is spark going to the plugs, then we can advise more closely. Thanks. I am going to delete the previous reply. Nothing in there but sarcasm.

Being way2old is why I need help from younger minds
