I posted a thread about the trouble that I am having with my 87 GN. The car just shut off on me as I was driving. I tried to start the car up again thinking it wasn't anything to worry about. Unfortunately the car would just make the cranking sound continuously and not start up.
I checked for fuel pressure and also listened to see if the fuel pump made the sound while the key was in the on position. The car passed these two tests. Next we figured it may be a bad coil pack so we conducted the plug test to see if the car was getting spark. The car passed this test
So now I'm thinking that it may be the crank sensor or the ECM. The problem is I don't know how to test these parts, I'm a noobie when it comes to working on cars.
I'm wondering if I can take the car into a regular mechanic, or if I need a TR Specialist.
If anybody knows of a local mechanic or if you are a person who could help me out, please inform me, I would greatly appreciate it.
I have tried contacting Nick over at Arizonagn on other occasions, but I have never gotten a reply from sent emails or phone messages.
Thanks To All
