Welcome.

Nice starting point with the 7.

The SRT4 is the best bang for the buck now a days...

For a 7 not to want to start can be a number of things.

Low Compression in the chamber...
Fuel Fludding....
Dirty Injectors......
Bad Spark Plugs....
Bad Electric Coil...
Bad Fuel Pump....
Bad Battery Termainals....
Water or Anti Freeze in the chamber due to bad water seals....
Bad Fuse... As I remember when a 2nd Gen did not want to start up at a hang out that I was at, one guy said to take one of the fuses from under the hood. She started up quick after that.

That is just what I could think of from the top of my head with out thinking...

Good luck, keep up the good work and be safe.
