Okay I really need some help here. I was out driving aroun d town the other day in my 245. Stoped at a store and went in for maybe 5 minutes, came out and when I tried to start the car, it started, sounded good for maybe to seconds and stoped. It has been doing that for a week now. After the first 1 or 2 seconds, it stalls, I can sometimes keep it started buy playing with the throotle for 10 to 20 seconds but it is running really really badly after the initial start.

I have changed the relay, plugs, wires, distributor cap, and rotor, and this persists.

What next any opinions, I really appreciate any help
