Check the crankcase sensor, clean the throttle body, check the throttle body sensor, you may want to check fuel pump pressure and change fuel filter...
What am i checking for on the sensors. Sorry im a hvac tech not a mechanic lol
The throttle sensor in located near the fresh air intake, crank sensor is typically located on a side of the engine, fuel filrer is located under car on the drivers side and fuel pump is in the gas tank...
Sounds like a fuel issue,check fuel filter,and fuel pump as joemom said.
Ok i found that i had a failure in the distrubtor cap. Cap was worn out and part of the distrubtor where the rotor sits broke off and messed everything up. I replaced the cap and rotor tryed to crank wont start checked spark only indicated spark towarda the end of me cranking the engine for testing i ohmd out the coil and it was bad replaced it gets a little more spark but still wont start. Need help lol
