my car started fine this morning and on way home from work i went to fill up got back in the car then it would not start. when you turn key the starter motor don't turn and the oil light and battery light don't come on theres plenty of life in battery as lights come on and dont dim. any ideas:confused:

Need more info as to what the cars doing... sounds like its not even clicking right? If you're getting all the usual lights on the dash, then the first thing i'd check would be the TDC sensor.
