Diagnostic codes?
Hey everyone. Name's george, first time here, hoping someone can help me out.
My 91 Cutlass Ciera, with a 3.3 wouldn't start today. Car has 170K on it, and typically runs great. But this morning, it cranks over but won't start. I've checked it for spark, as well as fuel pressure, and they both seem good. Here's where my tale becomes frustrating. I can't find my hayne's manual anywhere. I sold a camaro several months ago, and I had planned to leave the hayne's manual for the car in it. Now, I can find the camaro manual, but not my ciera manual, and I have a sinking feeling that I gave away the wrong one 
So, the car will start briefly with a shot of starting fluid, but not besides that. The fuel seems good. I haven't checked it with a gauge, but I've got enough gas on the floor of my garage now to prove that the pump's working So I'm thinking the next logical step is the ignition timing, which is controlled by the ignition module, I believe. So my question is... Can anybody tell me which ports on the diagnostic terminal I need to connect the jumper wire to in order to get the code? And can anybod tell me what code should show up if it is a problem with the ignition module? thanks in advance.
George
