Re: 1991 camaro wont start

Try turning the key on/off so you can hear the fuel pump prime a couple times before actually trying to start the engine. See if that helps.

Without some work and spending $$$ probably not.
Just turn the key twice when engine is cold and save your money

Re: 1991 camaro wont start

I am having this same problem. I have tried to turn the key on/off a few times before trying to start it and nothing it just cranks. If I go back out later, it will fire right up. I put new plugs, wires, cap and rotor on, no difference. I can hear the fuel pump turning on.
