s4 Tii not starting
I go to start my car this morning and it wont start, just cranking. Get some jumper cables on it, same thing. I have a fuel cut off switch so i don't have to deal with the fuse, and I try it with no fuel then with still nothing. This is the first time I have seen frost near the back windshield area before. I have good oil level and coolant levels. The last time I drove it was yesterday only for like a minute to move from the street to the drive way. I dont have any tools at my house because they are all at work, but if there is anything you guys can think of I appreciate it.

Hmmm, I'd try removing the spark plugs and check or clean if necessary. Then maybe squirt some ATF fluid or even oil into the chambers and cranking it a few times with out fuel. Once a nice film of lube is coating the internals re-install the plugs and give it another shot. Worked for me...
doh, no tools... nvm

Can any one tell me if while doing this I should kill the spark to the leading plugs or not? I have tried with the leading plugs wires connected like normal and just killed the fuel delivery.
