Alright, so I have a feeling my engine has run its last AutoX. I have suspisions on what it is but I want some confirmation.
I can turn the key and I get a strong starting sound, but it will not actually start. It will rev to about 1 grand as I have the key in start position and the starter is going but it wont stay on.
The distributor is working fine and the fuel is getting there.
Here is the big find: I pulled spark plug wires and there was some oil, then I pulled spark plugs 2 and 3 and they were dripping with oil. All the spark plugs show signs of oil problems.
In all seriousness, without telling me to buy a new motor, your motor, or your car, what is the problem.
This is what IA is for so lets use it right guys and girls.
Thanks

A.D.D. version- car no crank, good fuel pump and filter, battery and distributor, starter goes strong when in start pos., but no catch, always dies.
