Sounds like my 89, of course I've by now checked the whole fuel system and replaced the whole ignition system and am now looking for loose vacum lines since some are seemingly non-existent... Hope you have better luck then me.

Sound sjust liek the Ka-T I just went to help out. Do you have fuel at all lol? He ran out of gas. Check your battery. Possible your alternator died and you were able to drive until you drained your battery. Could be a bad ground as well....

the ground is fine....battery is still good......i know it has gas cause it broke down 40 secs after getting gas hahaha.....i've changed the fuses and i can hear the fuel pump sending the gas to the motor there's a lil squeak in the line i guess......you can hear everytime to turn it to the on position......
