In preparation for future petrol increase, I bought myself a Savvy for 1k.

The car is not in running condition hence the cheap price.

However, it can crank but won't start. Already checked the fuel pump and it is humming ok. TDC cleaned. Coil connector cleaned.

What could it be? The car didn't come with the original key with remote. Just a normal unbranded key. The previous owner was able to start the car and drive around ok until she upgraded and left it outside the house for almost a year.

I'm thinking of ordering a replacement TDC to try but need to know what else to check to get it running again. It would be a waste to scrap it because the interior is spotless and mileage is low. The AMT runs fine and able to shift gears in manual mode.

Any help is appreciated. TQ.

Is there an OBD2 which supports the Savvy? My Launch won't even read anything from the car but works fine with other cars.

How to bypass or disable the immobilizer? Pulling out the fuse didn't work.

Ok. Just an update.

1. Fuel pump replaced.
2. Fuel filter replaced.
3. Coil pack replaced (used but working on another Savvy).

Still the same symptom. It won't turnover. Can crank but won't start.

What else could it be?
