Starting problem
As working fine all week,and I get back from the ATM won't start.
I try to prime by starting the radio and turning key all the way until ignition still work come on.
It turns over,
And I can feel it trying to kick on, but it just won't.
My oil gauge jumps up and down when I try to get it started.
Oils good, radiator is full, trans is fine.
Anyone having a similar problem?
Or know what I can check?

Leave your door open, turn on the key and listen for any sound coming from the fuel tank. If your fuel pump is out sometimes you can beat on the tank and get it working again.

Not unless you got bad fuel that had water in it.

Glad it worked! You can keep banging on the tank to make it work, it might last a day or a year but I wouldnt stray to far from home.
