i have a problem here. the other day i went to the store and when i
came out my car wouldn't start. after checking all the hoses and
wires and what not i gave it another try and it started. i went to
another store and the same thing happened. now it's at home here and
it won't start at all. the things i've checked so far are the plugs
(they look fine), wires, battery terminals, timing belt, and checked
for a spark on two of the plugs before the battery went dead. got a
spark from them but it was a yellow color. could that be from a
dying battery or is that likely my problem? also i listened for the
fuel pump to kick on at the gas tank fill door when the car is turned
on but heard nothing. is the pump loud enough to hear like that?
also the codes i got from a while back when i pulled them last
suggested the cam position sensor was bad but i ruled that out
because of the spark i got from the plug wire. is that a correct
assumption? any help would be great.
