Default Car want start

I replaced the battery in my car and now it will not start. It acts like it blew a fuel pump fuse but I have replaced it and it still will not start. I don't know were else to look. Any advise.

What do you mean by “won’t start” ??…”No Crank” or “Crank No Start” ??

Do you hear the fuel pump prime for 2 seconds when you turn the key on ??….if not you will have to diagnose the fuel pump system…if you hear the fuel pump feed an alternate source of fuel like BrakeKleen or my preference propane into the intake manifold…use PCV or brake booster….if car runs for a bit you have a fuel delivery issue….if car still doesn’t start look at your tachometer while cranking…if no movement this could be a crank sensor issue (no spark and injector pulse)…let us know.
