Re: 97 SL2 wont start Please Help ASAP!

The '97 year had a faulty check valve in pump. This means that if the car sits for to long it looses fuel pressure at the rails. The fix: get a new pump or let the pump prime the rail before starting. I suggest the latter of the two. By putting the key in the RUN position for 2 seconds, it primes the rail to the proper pressure. You may want to do this twice to be sure its pressurized.

The rail should see 38 psi from the sharder valve with the key in RUN iirc
