Default Help!! Won't start.

Drove the GS300 home. Went back to it two days later, motor spins, won't start. Is turbo'd with MSD and Haltech tuning. I can hear a humming sound from the throttle motor. Is this normal. Where do I start in troubleshooting?

Guess this was to tough to get input. Determined the MSD unit was shorted. Replaced with a new one, problem is solved.
