I have an 86 camaro w/2.8 multipoint engine, it has a new battery,alternator,pcv,belts,spark plug wires,and semi new spark plugs, it carnks and cranks and sounds like it's going to run but then it just dies and nothing, itry to start it again and it just cranks but no running! I really need help cause i have to move the car today or it gets towed so PLEASE HELP! E mail me ASAP! Thanks

 

Does the car have gas

 

Sounds like a fuel delivery problem... might wanna check the fuel pressure at the schrader valve, or just go ahead and replace the fuel filter...

It could be a shot fuel pump...

A simple quick check... make sure the plugs are hooked up right, and you've observed the proper firing order... when looking toward the rear of the car from the front... it is...

5-6
3-4
1-2

the #1 cylinder is the front passengers side... the #1 terminal on the cap is the front left one, going -clockwise- from there...

It -really- sounds like what happened to me after my FP died though... not a cheap/easy job! Good luck!

Thanks very much i am going to check that now, and hope to find the problem Thanks!

 

There is a way to test the fuel pump, but I don't know what it is. If you have a manual, it should help.
