Hey all.
I am working on my sister's 04 Sonata 2.4 and can't get it started. I am pretty knowledgable on cars (rebuilt engines, have a 320whp turbo neon, etc) but this one is eluding me.
Car stopped running while she wass driving home. A side-of-the-road diagnosis pointed at the fuel pump as I could not hear it prime when the ignition turned to ON. (All fuses good)
I got it home. Fuel pump replaced: No Dice.
I opened up the timing belt cover, and whamo. the belt is **** near split, missing teeth, cracked, etc. One of the cams looked like it jumped a couple teeth.
I pulled it appart and replaced the belt, timed the cams, crank, and oil pump... turned the engine over by hand several times to verivy timing. Before getting it all together (with the accessory belts off) to verifym I cranked the car over. She cranks but does not fire. I am not hearing the fuel pump prime at all. Any advice before I try to slap the rest together and see if that OHC and DOHC motors I've worked on rock at this point.
