Just a quick question...here I go.. I have a 1985 Camaro..2.8L. The problem lies in that it will not start..I am under no circumstances a mechanic..but was under the understanding that in order for and engine to start and run all that was needed is fuel, and fire, and oxygen..I have all kinds of fuel coming up to the engine..I have a good spark..and there is air all around..but the thing still wont start..It is unbelievably frustrating..I thought the perhaps it had "jumped its timing" but when the number 1 piston is top dead center the rotor button is pointing to it..which I am under the understanding that this is correct so I have no more reasons to believe that it has jumped its timing...also someone had informed me that perhaps the computer is gone..but I was under the understanding that a check engine soon light should be on..so if anyone had any ideas/suggestion to what is wrong could they please reply/post and help me out. Thanks, Patrick
