I was driving my celica 94 sx happily for a few days shortly after buying it and half way down the street the engine just stopped firing on me.
It was fine for the first 30 seconds of driving, then as I said it just lost power and stopped firing. Checked the fuel pump, it is fine. Checked the electrics, they seem fine too. I can get the starter to run and run, but the engine doesn't fire. Does anybody have experience with this model celica and know what it could be? |

Question is, are you getting fuel at the injectors and spark at the plugs?

sounds like a fuel issue. an easy check is remove one of the spark plugs, then plug it into the wire and turn the engine over. if you can see it sparking, then you know that the ignition is working.
