ok, I know... not Mustang related but I figured with all the mechanical knowledge (of which I have VERY little) floating around this forum, you all were my logical choice to turn to and so, here's the situation:
a friend of mine is giving me an '87 Plymouth 2.2 FI Reliant (K car) that only has about 70'000 miles, for free. He's got 3 other cars and so wants to get rid of this one. The only catch is, the car cranks but doesn't start. We replaced the starter relay but still no luck. I'm going to put in a new ignition coil and new wires to see if maybe that is the problem.
I figure if the problem is simple (think cheap) I'll be getting an everyday car that I won't have to really worry about if it ever breaks down. after all, it's free. Anyway,maybe someone has experienced the same before.
Any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks in advance,
J.P.
