I have been playing with this for a while now. Came out on the 4th of july to take the kids to the fireworks, and had no fireworks from the ingition system. tried to get some spark from a plug wire to no avail. replaced the plugs, wires, and coil, nothing(did put old coil back) Replaced the cap and rotor next (a week later) fired right up got two blocks away with a couple of restarts, then she died and nothing just cranks away. Replaced the ignition module that evening. ( on the driverside quater panel also to no avail) she still wouldn't start. Next day started up, I let it idle in the drive for about 20 minutes then once she was warm it died and won't restart. What next? I have also pulled the fuel line to the fuel rail and tried to start, got plenty of fuel. Went to the library and the chiltons indicated that there is a onbaird self diagnostic box with lovely indicator lights and spots for a test lead. I can't find anything resembling that on my model and I have read the post indicating that there is a "hall effects" sensor in the distributor that may also effect the timing, but when i had the cap off and replaced the rotor I saw no sensor in or near the distributor. Just had a though I haven't looked for fuel from the rail after the dying. going to have to try that. any other ideas.
Thanks
Daniel
