Its doing some freaky shit now. I get in and start it. It starts turns over about 20 times then acts like the entire system shut down. If I hit the gas all the way to the floor while its doing this it makes the sound like its sucking in a load of air but not firing it. I have a new rotor and cap and new spark plugs. I am afraid that the dizzy is goin bad or the plug wires are shot. (probably what it is if its not the dizzy they are old as hell)
Anyways it then floods out. Then after I get all of that shit burnt up it runs fine. It does this at random. Sometimes it will start everytime for weeks then have a fit and doesnt want to start for about 3 days. I dont know what it is and I am not throwing any codes.
I took a can of card cleaner to it today and reved it to about 6grand then sprayed it in the intake till the car about died. repeated that 3 times then took it out and ran the dog piss outta it. Its running better but I havent had to start it very many times yet.
I need help with this one its really pissing me off I am thinking that I should have hit those deer last night doing about 100mph so that I wouldnt have to worry about it not starting. well I wouldnt have to worry about anything cause I woulda died...LMAO

Not for sure but pretty confident. If you check into recalls for your car you'll find that there was a recall for the ignition relay. This sounds to be the problem. If not take a spark plug out still connected to the plug and turn it over if it dosent spark dig through your ignition system.

Well its gotten worse. It turns over fine but just wont ignite. This only happens when I start it for the first time each day or when its really humid outside.
Now its to the point where I have to use starting fluid the first time I start it each day.
Im starting to think the (weak) internal coil is going out. Guess I will have to have a blaster cap put on.
