When you first turn the key to "II", do you hear any clicks from under the dash?

Do you have a yellow "check Engine" light on the dash?

It's most likely your Main Relay.

Hello:

I had a similar problem with my Del Sol a couple of months ago. It was the distributor. When I turned the key, it made no sound at all. It didn't even try to turn over. No beeps or clicks or anything...Runs great now.

Don't know if this helps, but I thought I'd share...

Actually, to be honest, the car has a rather strange issue. Sometimes if we go over rough RR tracks or potholes, the problem recurs. But if it gets a jump it's fine for weeks. Last week our neighbor plowed into the front passenger corner, knocking out the lamp. The next morning it went dead again. Jumped it and "presto!" it's fine again.

I figure it is a ground wire issue, but I have been unable to locate it...

Good point. Thanks for making me re-consider the problem.

Ummmm, the symptoms you're describing don't match a distributor problem at all. You're not telling us the whole story. Your problem will return if you only replaced the distributor.
