Oldsmobile/Buick Repair: Starting, spark plug wires, liter v6 engine


Question
Hi,
Thank you for responding, this what I know of the car, it was running great until I tighten the battery cables and pushed all of the connection on tight.

1983 Buick Limited 2 Door. I turn the key and get nothing I drove it home from having a new fuel pump put at the shop, it has a new battery and the spark plug wires and plugs look good. Hope you can help.

Answer
hi jerry.well sounds like either when you pushed the wires too far in the terminals.as in up to the rubber coating,which will not make a connection/.or maybe you did not get all the wires in the terminal,and one is not connected.or possibly created a spark,and blew a fuse check all fuses carefully.either way take the connectors loose and redo them makeing sure the copper part of rhe wire is all that is inside the terminal.please take a min to rate my service so we can keep it free.ty billymac
