I went to start my car yesterday and at first it cranked and fired up, then about 3 seconds later it died. not only the engine but the electrical system on the car was out for a few minutes then started working. after that the engine won't turn over, it will crank just fine so the battery is good, I put a fuel pressure gage to it and got 43 psi. so I'm left with no spark, but I just replaced the distributor and water pump in December. any ideas what else it could be?

 

Kinda sounds like the distributor again.. Did you get a GM replacement or one from like autozone??

 

bought it from Jason Cromer. I'd really hate to have to do that job again. plus I can't as my apartment complex has already fined me for doing that same job back in December, that was after a written warning for changing my TB. they are **** about that rule here.

 

Check for spark at the coil and a plug or 2.
