    Car dies while making a turn down the street with my foot on the pedal doesnt want to turn back on tried some starting fluid and it turns on then dies almost instantly someone told me maybe the fuel pressure so i put a guage and pmi was good but i replaced the regulator since it wasnt dry from the tip that connects to the hose now fuel pump, spraks, control module, heater core is all brand new i replaced them myself now its getting aggravated sounds like it wants to start but no luck please help

    sounds like a crank sensor.

    dirty tb can cause the start stall.

    if your n/a the fpr can cause that also, but you changed that.

    your car should start with a flick of the key like the rest of ours do. so who ever told you that its normal is a dope.

    Please try to keep the same issue in one thread. Making multiples often confuses the guys helping out with what has and hasn't been suggested.

    Thanks
