My car won't start smell like gas?

I have a 1995 mitsubishi eclipse crank engine try to start but turns of and I can smell gas.5 days ago it was raining hard and I was driving home till my car flooded really bad water came inside my car and one of my headlights don't work also my timing belt skip one tooth my sparks plug and distubeter was replace by auto nation honda. What can be the problem my car just started by 3 hour later I try to start it but won't start I have to do it couple of time to start the car.

Sounds like you took your car swmimg! Cars are not supposed to get THAT wet. The ignition system sounds wet. That would stop spark, causing you to have it not start and smell gasoline. Pull it apart and let it dry out. - and get that timing belt changed.

  • Why won't my car won't start after putting in gas? I have a 2007 civic, 80,000 miles, about a year old battery. Yesterday after I filled up the gas tank my car wouldn't start. Waited about 1 minute and it started fine. This had happened about 4 months ago (I had it checked at Honda) and they said it was okay. But today I went a short distance (15 minutes from home left the car for about 5) and my car didn't want to start. What could it be?

  • My car won't start but when I try to start it, it sounds like a power drill? I have a 95 Honda Civic and it does not start it keeps making a noise that sounds like a power drill spinning. I have no idea what it is or could be any more. I've pulled the starter and put in a new one and the starter is still not catching the fly wheel. I have even resorted to charging the battery, checking all fluids (transmission, antifreeze, etc.) and putting in 5 gallons of gas but still nothing, can't pay to get it to a shop. Anything helps thanks.
