I know someone's going to say it, so I might as well... You gotta be much more clear grammatically in order for people to take interest in helping. Otherwise, a few things might happen, none of which will help you out.

What are some other "symptoms" your car shows? Stuttering, violent shaking, hesitation, etc.?

Weird noise....? Whine, squeal, screech, etc?

And is it coming from the engine or the rear?

when you try to start the car do you smell gas?

if so check your ignition coil.

Try to isolate where it comes from. Have someone listen carefully to the engine or fuel pump while you crank/vice versa.
