Car wont start
Tuesday, August 15, 2006 8:43 AM
I have a 1992 Sunbird; yesterday I was driving at about 30 mph and the car lost power, it felt like it was going to die so I pulled over to the side of the road and turned off the ignition. The car would not re-start. The car will turn over not but will not "engage". The fuse is fine. I changed the fuel filter (old one was clogged) but the car still will not start. It is not throwing any codes. Any ideas?

Today I changed the air filter and fuel pump relay, still no go. Thanks for the replies; I will give them a shot and keep you posted.
