I have a 93 that I have beening trying to sell since the summer. it has sat in
the driveway the whole time. I bought a 99 to replace it. since then I would
start it once a week or so it would get going after a lot of cranking..when
i first took it off the road it would start on the first turn of the key. I took it
off the road due to water leak from the block under the intake..Up here in Canada the winter salt takes its toll on the nuts and bolts. I did the leak stopped since then bought a newer model...it was running last week after
a fair amount of cranking...Iwould let it run 20 mins to warm it all up and
charge battery...now after the first frost it turns over great but no spark
not even a hink of catching ...it has a new fuel pump..the gas was low
added gasline anti freeze and a gallon of gas...still no luck...I replaced
the feul pump relay under the hood...no luck...this happened last year
also for a time when it got really cold out...it would turn over but no
spark..any hints...I am fairly good at fixing these ..but unable to test
for feul at the injectors if pump is working..etc...any assistance would be
great..I have a manual..thanks...

Welcome to this forum! I've moved your thread into the stock 91-94 section. Did you ever replace the spark plugs & cables? Test the cable for a spark at the end which connects to the spark plugs. Did you check the fuel port to see if there is fuel when the pump primes? If there is fuel in the port, connect a pressure gauge to see what the pressure is. Was the fuel filter ever replaced?
