I bought a 1995 olds 88 royale with the 3.8 series 2 for 400 bucks.
it has been sitting for about 5 months and ran when it was parked.
i have replaced the computer, module, cam sensor and other little things but still will not start.
it has spark and fuel presure but when i spray starter fluid itll run for a secound and die.
my friend tested a couple things with what i think its called is noid lights and they didnt light up.
if anyone has any suggestions please let me know. |

Well you are not getting fuel if it starts with starting fluid then dies.
Check all the wires on the motor to make sure you dont have any mouse damage. |

Most people that are going with upgrades on your car go with a L67 swap and put the supercharged 3.8 in. Other then that there are not alot of things you can do. Well there are some but it can get spendy without much gains. |
