Spray a little starting fluid down the throttle body. Will it run a few seconds on that? If so it's a fuel problem. Make sure the fuel pump is coming on. If it's not try hitting the bottom center of the gas tank a few times with a hammer. If that gets you going it's a bad fuel pump. Hope that helps! Jim

The code reader was to get the codes, did u get them?. Does the car turn over with the key? If it doesn't, start by cleaning battery cables and make sure they're tight.

This vehicle is OBD I and the trouble codes are read by using the climate control panel. An OBD II scan tool won't work! Hope that helps! Jim
