Default Car will NOT fire.... Parked good and died

Quick rundown... Parked the car last night running perfect, no issues...

Today, Hop in, Crank... turns over perfect however will NOT fire.

Seem to have good fuel pressure, haven't been able to check spark yet.

Immobilizer seems to be functioning correctly.

Any common problems? Ideas?

I'd say check spark but with individual coil packs, it's highly unlikely that all 4 went out at once.

Is your name Chazz? I'm curious because I've never met someone with the same name as me; although I only spell mine with one z.

it does sound like a problem with a coil pack but odd that all of them wouldn't be working.

get to your hood, tap all relays lightly - sounds like one is sticky, to me. I've had it happen where it would take a while for the fuel pump relay to click on...

I had a similar issue, but mine was intermittent. Sometimes fired right up. Other times I had to wait a couple hours and try again to get it to start. It was bad spark plugs.

Yup my real name is Chazlee (Or Chazz for short)

I am better know as TheChazz(.com) though lol

As for the problem, it appears the car has a leaky injector... its flooded when I go to crank it after cranking after it sits for a long time. I am going to replace the plugs this week regardless... Just hit the 75k mark and its still on stock plugs.

I have read about it a few places online... The injector bleeds into the intake valve while its under pressure and not running. (Right after shutdown)
