Greetings,
My 91 Supra left me stranded tonight, wife had to bail me out.

OK,
1991 non turbo.....auto
Car has been running perfect...put a K&N kit on it about a week ago, has been running fine for the last week.....all of a sudden ker plunk, car dies in the middle of an intersection..fires back up and idles ok, but will not take any fuel to get her moving wants to sputter and die....pulled off the neg batt cable hoping to reset the ECU...attached it back on after a while...started her up, ran a little better untill hitting the lower rpm's and wants to die...so, I drove in 2nd all the way home without to many issues..still wanted to die in the 2000 RPM range shifing into D

any idea's.....other than put the old intake system back in

My 90- Supra will not start up, it will sound like it but it never ignites. Mechanic told the igniter was bad. Got a used one on line same result. The battery was replaced and I was jump starting my car after I changed igniter and still no start up. Any suggestions?

HELP

Well,
thanks for all you help..........Looks like I need a distrubutor assembly, thing is leaking and has been for a few miles..finally quite on me....not to expensive, but not cheap either.

Complete assembly $309.00.........labor $$$ ?

thx again.
