Re: '96 Park Avenue - Cranks but won't start

OK, chalk this up to strange things...

After re-replacing the Ignition Control Module, I was still getting the same result as before, which was cranking, but not starting.

I had just resigned myself to not spending more time or money on the car, which I was only keeping to drive while I get some work done on my Suburban.

Today, I was going to push the Buick out of the way, so I could get the Suburban out to the mechanic, and for grins, I tried to start it, and it cranked right over.

This would have been great, had it happened after I finished working on it, with the help of ctwright. However, since this is a few days later, having tried to start it several times over the last few days, I am concerned about whether this is a fluke, or if it is really fixed.

I guess I drive it around town, and see if the problem resurfaces. Maybe it was a fuel filter, and it just needed to settle? Who knows. I thought I was getting gas and no spark, but now I get both.

Anyway....We'll see what we'll see.
