The CEL comes on after the car sits for a while and the engine cranks but wont start. Once the light goes off car starts and runs great. How long i have to wait depends on how long its been sitting. Usually doesn't happen when the weather is nice. If its raining forget it. I already checked the battery, fuses, and distributor ignitor module. Diagnostic code reader says no code present. Dont want to spend tons of cash on the car b/c its not worth much anyway. Thinking about replacing entire distributor with a reman.???? Idk what to do now?
