Good evening,

How bad is the damage? Can you upload a picture for me?

Did you check the fuel pressure to see if the pump is working? Check the wiring to the pump to b sure there is nothing loose.

Did you check for spark? Check the connectors at the ignition module to be sure they are not loose.

Lastly, look under the steering column and check the connectors as in the diagram I sent you for the ignition switch.


Without them, the car will do this.
