Default My car won't start.

I'm baffled as to what's wrong, it doesn't make any sense to me.
As a little backstory, my 3-4 gears do not work currently, but there's no grinding, so I think it's just the clutch packs.

Now, the car won't start. There's power, it will turn over, sputter and die. I have fuel in the line, but maybe the pressure is too low? Anyone have any ideas?

Check spark, fuel pressure, and compression, preferably in that order... That's all that it takes to make your car run.

Yep check for pressure. Spark maybe there because you said it sputters and dies. Sounds like a fuel issue.
