Hello everyone,
I have a 1985 chevy celebrity two door, 2.8 v-6, fuel injected. My problem is this-when I try to start my car it tries to turn over but won't start. I know what your thinking but this is what I have done so far.
- new cap and rotor
- new coil
- new ignition switch (ignition is only a few months old but replaced for just in case)
- new starter
- new plugs and wires
These things are def. ok
- Fuel injection
- fuses
- fuel pump
- wires
- water pump
- distributer
- all belts are tight I was told that it was not the timing chain and gear because the car does not sputter, click or backfire badly.
I am at my wits end! There is a place for the diagnostic key and I used it, however my check engine light does not work. For all intents and purposes the car should start but it won't. My battery is showing very good on the meter in the car and the post are not corroded. There is spark both on the plug wires and the coil. I called a couple of mechanics and I have heard so much bull (probably because I'm a woman) like how one guy wanted to drop my tranny and change the brushes, lolol laughable! If anyone has any clues as to what is going on please, I'm begging, let me know! Step by step this is what the car is doing--
- put key in and turn
- it cranks slightly
- it tries to turn over but won't
I change the fuel filter to. There is no clicking or sounds of rushing air, or any dragging. Please help!
