Ok heres what i've done to my car.

new spark plugs
new spark plug wires
new alternator
battery checked as good
new main relay
new valve cover gasket

ok, i left for tennessee 4 months ago. and let my car sit for 2 months.
it ran perfect before. I come back and it acts like it wants to start but wont turn over.
After I put all the new parts on I added some Lucas fuel injector cleaner in a full tank of gas and i let it sit for another month because we were having electrical problems which are fixed now. I just got in the car and it cranked right up, i drove about 2 miles and it sputtered down and died. and thats where she sits.

Only thing I can think that is wrong, is that the fuel system cleaner did not run all the way through and I have trash inside my fuel injectors. Every 5 tries it will crank, but with gas peddle to the floor the rpm's wont go over 1,000.

can someone help me on this?

Now the problem is.. The car will not

 

is it throwing a CEL?

 

clogged fuel filter?

thats what i was also thinking.

 

hook a pressure gauge up to the fuel line and see what it is. should be around 35 at idle with a good fuel pressure regulator. also make sure you tightend up the rotor enough where it wont start wobbling

 

I dont think that would be it. I unhooked the fuel line too see if was clogged, and it wasnt.

it sprayed out pretty hard so i dont think that would be a problem.

Rotor? The distributor?

Which one, the in or out

 

try changing the other relay, not the MAIN blocky looking one, but the one UNDER that one, it's your Fuel Injector relay. my car was out for 2 weeks, changed everything, checked for clogs and everything, spent like 300 on the car trying to figure out what was wrong with it then a friend of mine told me to change that relay, i went to the junkyard, bought it for like 2 dollars [or you can steal it, whatever lol] put it in, and the car started right up.
