Engine problem
1995 Buick Regal 6 cyl Wheel Drive Type unknown Automatic 86000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
Hello, and Thank You for any advice given in advance. I have a 1995 Buick Regal that is evil. :)
It starts and runs fine sometimes, others it will start, but as soon as you shift, it stalls. After that it needs jumped for about 15 minutes with continuous cranking. It will turn over ALL the time, just won't start. Battery, alternator, and starter were tested and are fine. We gave the car all new spark plugs and wires, as well as a fuel filter. After that it started up fine (and sounded ALOT better) for atleast 15 tries. Now we're back to the begining with it. We were leaning towards an electrical problem. Any help is very much appreciated.
