well there could be a multitude of problems, if it sat there with gas in the tank for any extended period... .then the gas is probably bad
The rotary doesn't like to sit for any extended period without being ran |
You need to be a lot more descriptive in order for us to help you.
"went to start just whining" isn't helping much... what is whining? Do you hear the starter turning or is the car actually cranking (attempting to start)? When you turn the key to 'start' do the interior lights begin to dim? If the engine does attempt to crank, do the cranks sound consistent or does it start slowing down? You're receiving the CEL because the car isn't starting... so it won't do any good pulling the codes. You need to walk us through what you're doing and hearing when attempting to start the car... |
