My car will not start. I have DSMlink what should I be look at to solve the problem? It turns over fine but will not start and every once and a while to back fires. I have zero CE codes.

I don't have DSMlink but it sounds like your timing may be off?

Check your timing and fuel settings.

Not saying there isn't anyone who knows Link on here... But why don't you try the DSMLink forum? You may get quicker setup replies. Just a shot.

Quoting EMX5636:

I might do that but the reason I tried here is because there are a bunch of people on here that I respect and have been into these cars for a very long time. There is next to nothing that the members on here don't know. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

Check the timing like suggested, the backfire and no start are classic symptoms.
If good check the coil items ( igniter and coils ) then the CAS.
Last have you had your ECU capacitors checked/redone?
