Guess I have to join the no-start crowd as well. I have a 1990 Pontiac
6000 SE AWD (3.1 V6). I thought it was a nice car, but now I think I got ripped off on it. It has died on me twice within days of just buying it from a private party.First time was due to a worn out solenoid that wouldn't unlock the tranny lockup torque convertor once the trans fluid warmed up. Result it would stall the engine in drive. $C480.00 later and the car runs for about 200 miles.
Two days later, it stalls out completely after I come to a stop sign and try and engage the a/c circuit. Never restarts again. It now sits like a giant paperweight. I'm back to driving my trusty but tired 88 Mazda.
I know the jerk who had it before may have been fiddling around with the throttle position sensor, but I'm not certain. Anything I can try before I end up at a GM dealership and end up looking at big bucks? I just want to get rid of it now. TIA.
