you guys are crazy with your 20 step diagnosis problems. there are only a few things that will keep that car from starting....

1 bad crank sensor

2 bad air flow meter

3 sluged up throttle body

4 bad tps



theese are the common ones for that car.



2 questions. what engine is in that pig, and have you tried putting the gas to the floor while cranking, you may also try cranking and moving the gas pedal in different positions to find the "sweet spot"



let me know, I work on theese pigs all day long.

ok i had 4 steps, back off. those are the more common problems i myself have witnessed, perhaps you have different experiences but no need to get all insulting about it.

damn, lighten up bro, I said "crazy", not anything insulting. it's all good. just trying to help this guy out. I spent 6 months going to classes at the GM plant back in 94' I know how theese **** boxes operate, or better yet don't operate. what he has is a common problem, just trying to narrow down the symptoms to get him an answer

if the engine cranks over and doesn't catch... the starter may be out? do u hear the click click click sound? if so then check fuel lines... check voltage at pump... check the pump to see if it is still pumping.



check spark plugs... do they spark? maybe u have a bad distrubutor?
