Being an older car, unvariably, it's best in my opinion to start cheap, without rebuilding the car. Check spark plugs, and/or replace. Check or replace spark plug wires next . assuming your engine lights aren't coming on when it is running, if they are, it could be faulty emissions system components or a vacuum leak in the fuel injection system, intake manifold or hoses. Check your fuel pressure regulator and/or replace. It could even need ignition coil and module replacement. Lastly, the fuel pump could be faulting... On an older vehicle such as this one, it's better to understand what kind of maintenance it has undergone. Good luck and start cheap!

the most common problem next is the crank sensor. use a heat light to warm up the sensor to see if it is that. by using a heat light you can narrow down what part has the temperature glitch. Don't forget to try the engine computer.

Will need you to do some troubleshooting. Can you do a spark and fuel check for me? Please see my tip at http://www.fixya.com/cars/r5821173-doesnt_car_start_gasoline_engines . These are genericinstructions.
