How long since a tune-up? Any applicable trouble codes? Check fuel pressure, my info says, 41--47 psi, so if the reading is in the middle, should be fine. For 92 sunfire, you should be able to check some codes, yourself, using the check engine light on the dash. You use a jumper wire at the A & B terminals on aldl, along lower edge of dash, usually, it's a diagnostic connector. Once you hook up the jumper wire, you turn key just till the dash lights come on, no further. If the check engine lamp is working, it will start flashing, you count the flashes to get the codes. Your looking for two digit codes.
