Re: car problem
This sounds familiar to what happend to my parents car. They have a 1994 bonneville and it would run great forawhile then wouldnt start then we'd leave it sit and it would fire up.
What it ended up being is bad fuel pick up and sludge in the bottem of the tank.... we also replaced the fuel pump.
THis may help or may not
