we bought the car last night the guy told us it had been sitting for about 3 weeks. he started it when we got there (after him driving 45 miles to pick us up) it started with no problems. i drove the car all the way home listening to the engine to make sure nothing was wrong. when we got home i parked it for the night. this morning i got up to leave for class and the car wouldnt start we tried to get the car jump started and it still wouldnt start. what is wrong...i dont think its the battery because even when we hooked it up to jump it, it was still doing the same thin....NOTHING
 
my cousin is having the same problem and he checked the fuel line and it had clogged up with dirt and gunk and he cleaned that out and then cleaned the spark plugs and it worked great
 
It is definitely the battery . My car sat in my drive way for 2 months when I went to started it did nothing . I put a heavy duty charger to charge it for a couple of hours and it did nothing . I put the setting an the charger as crank assist and nothing . I bought a new battery and it started right away .I would definite start with the battery first just because you were able to drive it home doesn't mean you had good battery power it could of been running on the alternator power .

good luck
