I actually just drove it a few hours ago. i went out to tried to start it and nothing, it almost seems like it is out of gas but I just filled it up 2 days ago. It has about 55,000 miles on it.. Any ideas? Thanks

Hello Davekivi,

It sounds like your battery connecter could be loose or might have a build up on them. Does the car try to turn over or does it just not have power? If the car sounds like it doesn't want to turn over then it could be a bad distributor cap.

Thank You,

C.T.

Had a jeep that had similar problems. It would crank but wouldnt fire until about 5 min of cranking. I found out that the computer stopped sending signal to the fuel pump ( I found this out after pulling everything related to the fuel pump and checking every inch of wire) Its probably not likely but might be something to check.
