Ok, here's my issue. Two days ago i'm getting ready to head out to a local cruise, so I pull out the Malibu of the garage and let it idle in my driveway while i'm locking up the garage and the house. But as i'm locking up the car starts hesitating and making sounds like its missfiring and then suddenly dies. I have not been able to start it since. When I crank it over it sputters and tried a little bit to start, but not even close.
I have checked all fuses, any wiring near any hot exhaust or any place it may have been able to get cut. I checked fuel pressure. I have removed and checked resistance in all spark plug wires, and through all my spark plugs. And have replaced my coil and ignition module in my MSD HEI distributor. NOTHING! I even inspected the magnetic pickup in my distributor to make sure it wasn't loose or broken.
My spark plugs now look fouled and have lots of fuel on them...seems like a spark issue to me, but can't find the issue. Any ideas guys?
Thanks,
Jim
