Pontiac Repair: 1992 bonneville 3.8L SE quit running, crankshaft position sensor, actaully


Question
My bonneville just quit running one night.  The check gages indicator came on.  It turned over normally, but wouldn't fire at all.  After several attempts, it all of a sudden started.  Hasn't happened for a couple of weeks.  Something I should fix or get analyzed?  Thanks.

Answer
Hi Mark:

Well if it hasn't done it in a few wweks It's gonna be VERY hard to find. I can tell you if it did it once it will do it again. But what is it? Well It's either a spark issue or a fuel pump issue. Untill it does it again it's hard to tell you what the issue actaully is. If it's loosing spark It' look at possably a crankshaft position sensor. If it's loosing fuel pressure then I'd say it's a pump but untill it breaks it's hard to say what the problem is. Good luck :}
