Car wont' start!!!!
The car will crank/turn but won't fire. Spark plugs are maybe 2 months old. Intake boot had a leak in it but i sealed it. Battery is only 4 months old. It wont even start when i have the charger to it. I drove it earlier but it was ok b/c i didn't let it sit for too long. After it sat for 3 hours it just wouldn't start. Any ideas? Alternator is kinda old ....

when the key is on the ON position the fuel pump makes noises for a couple seconds.
turn the key to on couple of time after the fuel pump stop pumping (each time). then try to start the car, then check if it holds idle well.

Took your advice and it started but ...............
What happens after that is the car will start but then choke up right after it starts and die! So what am i looking at as a default?

vacuum leaks
take the intake manifold off and check all the tubing. it only takes 20 minutes.
or the fuel pumpcheck valve is bad. (maintains fuel pressure to start).
or leaky injectors.
happened to me and the 3way connector behind the ISV snapped in half.
for now increase the idle speed (the screw on the TB) and use the same method to start, the car should maintain idle. just to compensate until the car is fixed.
