This is my car on the way to the shop.
Drove it to school the other day and everything was great. When I went to start it up at the end of the day, it started and idled rough so I shut it down and went to restart it and it just cranks. I tried to do some diagnostic work, but I'm too car-dumb to figure it out even with the vast wealth of knowledge on them internetz.
Here's to hoping it's not too expensive.

Fuel pump, maybe?

That was my original thought. I can't hear a click of the relay or the hum of the pump when I turn the key to ON, but when I jumper the connection in the diagnostic port, I can hear them both working. Spark plugs were wet with gas and I have spark. No CEL codes. I have no idear.

It might be the timing belt then.

Update: Timing had jumped. A new timing belt and waterpump later and I'm back on the road.

The beauty of the non-interference BP engine, or any non-interference engine really. Jumped timing or a snapped timing belt will not destroy the head!
