turn the key don't start it ( KOEO) listen for the fuel pump to prime the system , shut it off , do it again , and then see if it starts try an octane booster , don't run it dry , it's not good

If the engine runs briefly when using starting fluid - but then dies - you could have a clogged fuel filter.

    2002 cavalier won't start. No crank. Lights work. Makes kinda of a crackling sound when trying to crank. Noise seems to be coming from right in front of dash under the hood.
