posted before on 1991 firebird v6 starting problem still nuttin....i think it could possible be vats.. my ignition cylinder is alittle sloppy... it'll fire right up with a shot of starting fluid then cut off after fluid is all burned out.... started once for like 10 minuted,ran great, then caputs...no start. any ideas?? just turns over and "tries" to start but nope

 

Could be VATS, but I am pretty sure if it was VATS, it wouldn't start at all. I think you might should look into the fuel system for an issue. Perhaps a clogged filter or a pump going bad, etc...

 

could b injectors, mine did that, turns out the electrical part of the fuel injectors was going bad, in my 90 RS camaro 3.1, i had to replace teh fuel injectors

 

car has new fuel pump,fuel filter,fuel pressure regulator, has 37-40 psi fuel presuure i know i'm close had it runnin once for bout 10 minutes...but then cut off,,(

 

have you checked for the obvious of a blown fuse to the pump or bad pump relay?

 

checked all fuses and relays yes

 

Well, if she's getting fuel and still not starting then it could be an electrical issue. We had an 86 z28 that wouldn't start if the steering wheel was tilted all the way up. It's a long shot, but check the wiring connex on the steering col. ???

 

ok that's something i'll give a try... an electrical gremlin is what im thinkin it is...just need to find it...thanks so much for the replys! Everyone have a GREAT day...
