OK, quick summary:

The car is a 1994 RT/10
It´'s been in the garage for the last 5 months.

I did some work on the stereo a month ago and it's started without any problems.
I also switched to a short shift, so that's the two things I've touch on the car.

Last week when I tried to start it up - no go!
The engine turns, it sells of gasoline but it didn't fire up.

I noticed the charger minus cable had fallen of so I put in the battery from my Vette instead, just to be sure. Same thing, the starter turns, smell of gas - no start.

So I checked all the fuses in the passenger footwell:
They where all ok (but I'm missing 1, 10, 13 and 17, maybe it's normal)

I took out a spark plug:
It was black and smelled gasoline

I checked if there was a spark:
No problem, the plug showed a spark

Checked the error codes:
It gave me 1 and 2 and 4 and 2 and 5 and 5, no idea what this means.


So, I have power, there is a spark, there is gas and my imobilizer is green.
I even took out the carpet to make sure the clutch goes all the way down to the floor.

I'm running out of things to look for, does anybody have any idea what is wrong?

Have you tried cleaning all the plugs and turning it over again?

If it turns over, and you have spark, and gas, and it's not firing... is there any dashboard lights on that may idicate something wrong?
