I found that the positive terminal connections were quite oxidized. Cleaned every thing up and put it all back together. Did both battery connections. Checked other grounds for the injectors and at the firewall and on the frame. Cleaned them up but they didn't look bad. Car still seemed to miss and not run smooth which was the same as it has run before. It is very subtle but I still notice it. May just be an old age thing and not related to the no-start issue. Been thinking about getting the injectors cleaned. I also checked for any intake leaks with a propane torch and nothing obvious was found.

Driving yesterday a couple k from home and the car looses power. Tach stays up but no gas pedal response. I pull off the road and it stalls. Key off and on and it starts up fine. Drive it home and leave it again for now.

My sedan had some issues with the connection to the fuel pump. Could be something like this or something that turns off the pump or the injectors?

Suggestions on what to look for or try? Also still have the issue with the fuel gauge stuck. Related possibly?
