When I stop It wont restart O_O Quick question.

Hello!

I have a 97 Olds 88 and it never fails...When I drive in to work (8 Miles) if I stop the car it will refuse to start again for about an hour or 2. It jsut cranks until the battery starts to heave with exhaustion and I finally give up and call for a ride. If I come back to it though in say 2 hours or so, BANG! It starts right up and life is good again. Any ideas on what parts I should start tearing out to replace?

Thanks!

fuel pressure regulator?

HRmmm,..... Maybe I'll give it a try..

won't shift to reverse at all when shifted from
neutral to drive will finally go into drive
then shifts perfect except no reverse

HRmmm,..... Maybe I'll give it a try..

I'm having the same trouble with my 92 olds 88 3.8. Let me know how that works out.
I had my brother-in-law put a scan on it today and it came up with code 17 and 21. I'm going tommorow to get a intake temp sensor, but I'm not sure what the other code is for. Had something to do with the RPM reading wrong.

UziRags---> check the oil presure sensor, the temperature sensor, just disconect one day and turn off after 8 miles, if the problem occur again, then chek the relays, this is the info that i have at this time.

Was told by 2 good mechanics, check out the crank sensor. Also try tapping on the ECU when it won't start.
