    yeah does it try to crank at all? if you get power and after u turn the key and only hear one click and nothing happens you can look into you starter relay, if the car cranks but doesn't start, well then theres a whole lot of possibilities

    Well...when you try to turn the car on does the motor try to turn over. If not..do you hear clicking or nothing at all.

    If the motor is trying to turn over...then I would check if you are getting spark.

    If you are getting spark...then you check for fuel

    when the stater does not work . i hear nothing. i have gas . i think who owned my car before me put in new fuel injector and fuel filter. so maybe the fuel pump or fuel rail. i put in new spark plugs and wire . disturbor cap and rotor. Pep Boys are going to look at it 2morrow. i hope its and easy fix.

    When you have the key on the "ON" position is any of the dash lights on?

    yeah . all my idiot lights came on. if i tap my stater .then i try to crank my car over. it works. but i never really had an idle problem . until now. i had a lil bit of a rough idle. but it never shut it self off. when the car was running i plugged in my cobra(Cop Radar) . my radio died as i plugged in my cobra. crossed wires. or and open. my roommate had the gas pedal to the floor and it went from 2000 rpm to 700 then died. what is the problem if u know. or is that a commom problem with 6 gen
