I'd check the fusable links and wires off the starter.

Re: 1987 firebird trans am gta wont run
thank you. i climbed under the car and saw what appeared to be the 3 links to which you refer. i could jus t see them, let alone reach them. they look like they are about 3 inches long, retangular in shape. how do i reach them? how do i check them?

Re: 1987 firebird trans am gta wont run
yep, that is them. gotta get her butt up in the air. Unless you're REALLY skinny. To check, often times a visual inspection will reveal a sign of burns/melting. I would also highly recommend disconnecting the battery for the process.
oh, this just dawned on me, also check the "ign" fuse under the dash. |

Re: 1987 firebird trans am gta wont run
is the fuse marked "ignition"/"ign" or ign/ecm? i couldnt see one in the fuse box that was only marked ign. or is it somewhere else?
