I have a 91 caprice 305 tbi. The car started and ran fine the other day now it will turn over and act like it wants to start but nothing, not even with ether... I replaced dist. cap, rotor and spark control module trying to fix this! the coil is good with blue spark, then I put a screwdriver in the end of one of the plug wires and let it spark to the fram and it was yellow/orange!!! Please help i'm lost at this point.... also there is fuel coming out of the injectors which is irrelevant the fuel delivery is not the prob it won't even start with ether!?(UPDATE) i just turned the distributor c.clockwise a lil and it started and barely ran with pedal to the metal....could this be a timing chain needing replacement? also... just before the car stopped running it had a funny squealing noise that wasn't the belt!? sounded like it was maybe towards the back of the engine?...
btw the clamp was very tight lol
It had good oil pressure while it was squealing. if the oil pump had locked up wouldn't It have lost pressure?
