Ninjawafers! · December 31st, 2011, 06:15 PM

it starts, but then dies shortly after... its 2 degrees here, so that might play into it. last time i looked, all my fluids were good, and i have not seen any leaks. i drove the truck the other day and it ran fine. i done know if its the cold getting to it or what... i just dont know. its too damn cold to go outside and really troubleshoot it right now too

My parents have a Lumina that used to do the same thing. Replaced the alternator and it ran good for 2 days before it went back to doing it. Ended up being a ground wire or something that ran into the fuse box under the hood.

My brothers old 94 Z28 was doing the same thing, turned out it was the opti-spark (distributor in your case). Replaced the opti-spark, ran smooth with out problem.
