engine wont start !

I've checked fuses and relays but my seven still will not run. I've noticed that I'm not getting any fuel to the engine. Everytime i try starting fluid in the intake,it then sputters,and burns out, and that's it. The engine cannot start running. Any suggestions?........

Gut reaction is the engine is flooded. Do a search on ATF trick. How many miles on engine? what is the compression? DON'T USE STARTER FLUID!!!!!!

Is your... fuel pump working or even connected? do you have good gas in the tank? Is your fuel filter super clogged? Has anyone tried installing a fuel pump kill on the car before? If so, maybe they messed up the wiring under the dash or their wires are loose. These are just some things that come to mind real quick. Im sure others will add to this.

If you dont have the factory service manual already, download it from www.fc3s.org under how-to's.
