My 98 olds 88 hasnt been starting often. When u turn it over, all the lights and everything come on but it doesnt start. No noise. We had to put new spark plug wires due to it shaking when on brakes. Still does that even though its new we replaced the bat Have told you everything u need to know. Oh check engine light has been flashing since spark plugs and wires changed and security light has been now flashing but goes of in time.

The flashing check engine light means you have a really bad missfire. Make sure the spark plugs are gapped correctly and not cracked also the spark plug wires are routed correctly and on tight. Do you have any codes in the computer?
