Ensure steps for spark and fuel testing in BASIC DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES article have been performed.

• Check ignition system. See BASIC DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES article.
• Check fuel pressure. See BASIC DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES article.
• Check fuel pump (PGM-FI) relay. See BASIC DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURES article.
• Check CKP/TDC/CYP sensor (if equipped). See DTC P0335, P0336, P1336, P1337, P1361, P1362, P1366, P1367, P1381 or P1382 in appropriate SELF-DIAGNOSTICS article.
• Check for contaminated fuel.
