[QUOTE="rejectedzipper, post: 1988436, member: 665101"] Did you just buy it? Or has it sat unused for a while before you started it? It sounds as though the distributor drive has sheared. Take the top off and turn the key (DON'T hold onto the top or the leads) see if the gizmo inside spins around, if not that's your problem. If it DOES spin then perhaps your alternator has crapped out. If you can afford it get the car to a specialist auto electrician so he can run diagnostics and track down your problem. [/QUOTE]
