Starting failure
2001 Fiat Uno 76 miles
My vehicle started having power failures and suddenly the acceleration stopped working. Injectors, the throttle body, all sensors, wires, spark plugs, fuel pump battery, alternator and even the ECU were replaced, but nothing got better. On the contrary, the engine does not even start now.

Hi, jake05, I hope I can help you. It is evident that mechanics have been trying to guess which the failure was by replacing all the elements you mention, most of which have nothing to do. They must have not been replaced in the most appropriate way either. There are some procedures you can follow in order to know whether the pieces you changed were damaged before. In order to help you, ask the mechanic to check the following: 1) cylinders compression, which should be between 125 to 130 PSI, and all the cylinders should have the same value. If this is not the case, 2) check the distribution, that it is well regulated and that the timing belt is not damaged. Also check the crankshaft and camshaft pulleys. I personally believe the problem was here at the very beginning. Make sure that the ECU you changed is the right one for your car and that it is properly installed. If it is different from the original one, the engine will not start. If it is the correct one, it must be well codified. Hope my information helps you and let me know what happens. Good luck
