Car won't start 850 1995

posted by  someone claiming to be Matthew on  Tue Feb 26 12:09 CST 2002 [RELATED]

I just finished with this whole ordeal. We started our 93 850 to move it 8' in it's parking spot, the next day it ceased to run. As suggested earlier I replaced the plugs, while doing this i looked into the cylinders and the pistons had a nice puddle of gas on them. So i could rule out gas, i then tested for spark. spark was present. I went on for 4 days drying the plugs and draining the battery trying to start it with my foot to the floor. On the fourth day it rose again. My two cents=> persistance pays. change the plugs dry them as often as need be, let the cylinders dry out if you can. she'll start.
