Asked by mridk118 Apr 17, 2014 at 05:25 PM about the 1997 Pontiac Grand Prix 4 Dr GT Sedan

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Ran it out of gas and had to sit for a week
before I got money to put gas in it. I put
6gallons in, and it won't start.. it tries to
start, but won't.. sometimes it'll sound like
it's fixing to start but then just won't follow
through with it.. fuel is getting to the engine,
just not starting...
