Unhappy Jeep JK Roll Over.. Need Help

I rolled my 2014 Jeep JKR and now it won't start. The motor turns over but it sounds like its not getting fuel. The Jeep was upside down for awhile until I was able to get it right side up again(2 Hours). If any of you have dealt with this problem or have any advice please share! Thank you! BTW no one was hurt in the accident

Could it be that your fuel cut-off switch activated when the roll-over occured?

Not sure about not getting any fuel but what happened after
I flopped my TJ and we got it back over. We started pulling
spark plugs. The very last one was covered with oil. We turned
it over several times to blow the oil out. Put spark plug back in
and started it back up (check all fluids). Smoked like hell for a
while but I was able to keep trail riding.

Yep pull the plugs, I had oil coming out of the breather too on my JK when I rolled it.

I believe There is a roll over check valve in the fuel line coming from the tank, Its purpose is to stop the fuel in the event of roll over. If you have good relationship with your dealer parts/service depts ask them to look up to confirm, you will need to provide them the VIN
