wow, I've just been having shitacular luck with cars as of late.... intrepid's bearings are going and I have a rod-knock, stratus I bought to replace intrepid is limp and the tranny may be fubar, almost ****ed up the brake light switch in my girlfriend's mini-van the other day........ anyways, I
m fixing up a 91 Spirit for my dad, it has the 3.0L V6 (wish it were turboed).... anyways, car was bought at an auction by my older brother who was going to sell it, but instead it sat in the driveway for a while, so he gave it to my dad, and I was charged with getting it in good running order, so, I got new plugs, new wires, new cap, new rotor..... did full tune-up, car sat for a few days, went to start it up... battery was dead, but, it was messed up and not holding a charge anyways, no biggie, repalce the battery, go to start it up.... cranks but does't turn... WTF.... I made sure every wire was connected and the whole deal, tried to crank again, nothing..... sprayed some ether into the plenum, it fires, but dies the second it sucks up all the ether, so, I've narrowed it down to a no fuel problem, because it fires with ether.... my question is, anybody know if there is a schrader valve on the 3.0L engines where I can check to make sure it's getting fuel to the cylinders?
