So after driving my car a little roughly for 20 minutes because I was late for an important meeting it failed to start 5 minutes later. I have the P0300 code and nothing else.

I replaced the battery 3 or 4 months ago. I started with the plugs and the top of the engine was soaked in oil. I cleaned up the oil and put on a new cap, replaced the plug wires and the plugs.

I attempted to replace the fuel filter but it is stuck because the 12 mm bolt will not come out. I attempted to shimmy it and unplugged both ends. Fuel pours out pretty easily so I figure it is not a filter problem.

I have heard that it may be a fuel pump issue. I've read that I should listen for the pump but when I attempt to turn on the vehicle all I hear is it attempting to start. Has anyone had a similar problem or have an idea of what may be happening? I have also heard that there is a problem fuse that controls the fuel pump that may have gone bad.


I received help from a previous thread that I started but I figured I would start a new one with a title that better describes my problem.

 

 

Thank You. I'll give that a try tomorrow. I hope it is as easy as that.

 

Don't we all.

 

Hey guys, sorry it took me so long to reply. They ended up replacing my camshaft position sensor. Thanks for all your help!
