We definately need more info. With what you said it could be several things. Fuel, CPS, IDM, IPR, injector failure, etc. Give us a little more and I bet we can nail it down for you with no problem. And like DN said, welcome.

its the part circled in yellow. and the handle is yellow. dont do it on your driveway. once you open the drain you can bump the starter over a time or two and the fuel will drain out. make sure you shut it when your done.

It is one of the cleanest engine compartments you will find. no leaks, no dirt, no dust. gets washed atleast once a month. No I just gotta get that rear main sealed so the underside can be grunge free.
