not the timing chain, rotor button is turning,the car sat for 3 months so how can it be the timing chain? I think it could be in the wiring. anyone know where i can get a wiring diagram?

Re: 89 pontiac firebird 2.8 won't start

well my guess its not the wiring, how can the wiring go bad by just not moving for 3 moths? instant corrosion? nope my guess is something else, any problems before that, any check engine lights or anything? you just might hook it up to a scan tool if you have one hand to check for check engine, it should record last 50 key turns, if not ????
