My car with not turnover. I tries turning over, and if it does, it is only for about 5 secs and then shuts off. What is the problem. I just put in a new starter. Could it be the fuel pump? How do I test it?

Is it really hard to change a head gasket with three people? How long should it take?

well with three people it shouldnt take to long if you know what you are doing. itll most likely eat up a day, and your idle could be off to much to where it wont turn, try adjusting your BISS screw on top of the throttle body.

check your air filter, also replace your fuel filter. Im willing to bet its one of those. Id probably put my money on the fuel filter if i had to choose.

What am I checking for on the air filter? Brand new K&N filter 3 weekends ago. Two weekends ago we had a down por of rain, could that of damaged the air filter? Changed the fuel filter and it still does it. What about overfueling itself (flooding itself). It turns over for about 30 secs and shuts off. Even when it turns over and i give it some gas it still shuts off. If u are standing in front of the car, I did notice that #2 injector from the left is leaking. Why? All the way hooked up. Please respond fast. Thanks
