um change the dizzy cap, i wonder if its gettin any fuel, u might wana check the fuel pump, um if u havent, turn the key to on and get the pump to prime itself, then try to start it up, see if it starts, u might be able to hear it, jus a thought upon my mind, had a few pumps go bad this summer...............

So you physically removed the plugs after trying to start it and they were drenched in fuel? Or are you assuming there is no spark?

I'm wondering if they guy actually KNOWS the car is not recieving spark, in other words, did he remove the plugs after strating the car to see if they were wet...which is a dandy sign of not sparking.

Someone started to mention a fuel problem, so I guess I was looking to clarify.


Or maybe I'm just fucking retarded and need to be shot. I'm going to bed.

I'm betting its your opti. If in fact that is the problem don't pay someone to fix it or you'll get raped. Call up this guy named Dal Slabaugh from Van Devere Buick up in the midwest somewhere and he'll get you an opti cheap. When I did one on my '95 caprice I got the opti for around $150 shipped. Then just grab a 6 pack(12 might be better with an LT1) and give yourself 3 or 4 hours to fix that bitch.
