Hi scotty, I have a 2004 Hyundai Santa Fe 6 cyl 3.5l 2 wheel drive automatic. I bought it from a local used car lot. I didn't realize this car had so many problems and I've done my.best to get as much fixed on it as possible. The OBD reads: ignition failure sensor, crankshaft position sensor, oxygen sensors. The problem I'm having is my car won't start now. It wants to. Whatever is going on is not sending gas thru . This car had all 3 catyltic converters missing. I've replaced 2, I've replaced the front oxygen sensor, the ignition failure sensor, had a radiator flush, oil change, brand new fuel pump, I've done all I can. I've had one person say it could be the timing belt skipped. The RPM and check engine light never came on untiI the IFS was replaced. What do you suggest I try or do next?

Wow I'm sorry to hear that. This is why you ALWAYS want a mechanic to inspect a car BEFORE buying it..... Based on the repairs you've done, it sounds like you have a lot of money into it. Honestly, I suggest you try to sell the car instead of spending who knows how much more to sort it out. Or take it back to that used car lot and demand your money back. Clearly they sold you a car with many problems - they're supposed to disclose all the problems with the car before you buy. Try that first and then see how much people will offer you and go from there. It's not worth putting another penny into that 17 year old Hyundai. Good luck.
