Is this a good starting point?
Can you tell me the best ordering?
Also, what can you add to this list?

- Starter (Jump with screwdriver)
- Fuel pressure. 48PSI. Listen for Fuel Pump.
- Crank Position Sensor (CPS)

- Check for spark (How do you do this?)
- Is gas tank empty?
- Bad spark plugs? Bad Coil? Bad ECU? Bad Distributor, Cap, Wires?
