starting problem

ok, the car cranks up as usual and i go to get gas, but it wont start at the gas station, it turns over but wont start. A buddy and I checked everything, fuel pump cutting on, injectors spraying, each coil pack is sparking, all fluids fine, battery volts on AFC reads 12.0, everything seems to be fine, the 2 guys im friends with that know SR's are completely stumped. we even compression tested the car because one guy said it sounded like it wasnt getting good compression. That was also fine. any idea guys?

check ur starter and alternator. when your car doesnt start the first thing you would want to check is the starting and charging system. then it would be the fuel system.

12.0V is a little low, the first thing I would try is jumpin it, or push start and drive it around, and see what your volts look like when the car's on. You should see at least 13.5V at normal driving (2500 rpm or so). If ya dont, its ur alternator.
