And if you were already almost empty with you tank, and only added a gallon, i have had problems where my car wouldn't start with only that much in it. Is the car on a flat surface?
Yeah, its on a flat surface, Today I tried the screwdriver in the plug wire next to a bolt and tried starting it, I got no sparks that I could see. So i took the dist. cap off and tried to get the rotor off, I unscrewed the rotor and pulled gently and it came off with little effort. Then I realized that the base of the rotor was still on the distributer peg. It was broke in two. So I took the rotor off my 4dr and tried to start it but still no spark. Im pretty sure the coil is out and the rotor is just coincedence as usual.
