Well i have a new problem. think is is why we got the del sol so cheep.

Well at first i thought it was the coil so i replaced all of that.

then i thought it was the alarm so i got rid of it.

what the problem is the car will run just fine drive all over the place and random times i will turn off the car and when i go to try and start it up it will just crank over and will not start. so at this point i have not a clue what it is.

the only thing that seems to work so far is unpluging the - on the bat and letting it sit for 30 min and then the car starts right back up.

anything have a clue what this might be?

Fuel pump relay, have to replace it or re-solder the connections on it, your choice.

If what Geo is referring to is the Main Relay, I've got 2 extras from my car. If you want one, I'll sell one to you, just let me know.

You can read more about why I have two extras on the below thread:
