My son has a 2002 Stratus RT Coupe with a 3.0 24v motor that turns over fine but wont start. I checked for spark and it has spark but it may be weak. Checked timing belt, it's fine. Has 110 lbs in all of the front cylinders. Took out the back seat and couldnt hear the fuel pump run with the key on so I removed it and put 12v to it and it pumped. It didn't seem like it was high pressure so I replaced it. Still no start. Took off the distributor cap and the rotor was as bad as I've seen one and the cap had a huge crack all the way through so I replaced both thinking this was the problem but still no start. Car has 116k. A couple of threads down, same exact car with same exact problem but the thread died and the user didn't post a solution. He washed his engine just like the thread below. Coil or front ECU is all I can think of now but I hate to replace them both as I've spent 150 already with no success. HELP!!!!!!!

 

Any Check engine light Codes? Could be Cam or Crank sensor, but check for Codes first

 

No codes at all. If it were a cam or crank sensor would there still be a weak spark? I would think no spark at all if a sensor was bad.

 

Turns out it was the coil/distributor. The old one was putting out spark but obviously not good enough spark. Got lucky and bought a used distributor on Ebay for 40 bucks. Fired right up.
