New distributor? No, if it was bad it would't work at all. Bad coil? a possibility since they can be affected by heat. The coil goes inside the distributor cap and is easy and cheap to replace. The most cost effective way is to trace your problem. If your distributor cap and wires are more than 5 years old, replace them. Since 90% of all car problems are electrical in nature and not fule related, that is where I would check. The fuel pump is another Chevy issue. Mine went about 180,000 miles before it went. The fuel pump is located insdie the gas tank and has several other componets. Mine went while I was out of town so I had a Chevy dealer in NJ replace it. Here is the breakdown. Fuel filter 25121468 $19.00 Sender AS 25028949 $365.00 Fuel Pump 25167089 $89.00 Strainer 25121832 $19.84 Cleaner $4.35 Labor $320 Parts $497.19 Tax $49.03 Total $816.50 It sure was a lot easier in the old days when you could put in a $20 fuel pump in a parking lot in a half hour. Good luck VBD Take car to nearest Autozone/Advance/O'Reillys and have them check your oxygen sensor. This are typical symptoms of a bad sensor

How do you wire a start button on a 1964 28 hp Evinrude outboard motor with electric star?
The starter motor requires a lot of power so you need to have a solonoid wired into it and set it so your ignition button activates the solonoid. Otherwise your not going to have enough power to the starter motor and eventually burn out the ignition switch and its wires. + -------Solonoid==============Ignition Button \____Starter Motor _____ / / _ ---------- Thats Hot to Solonoid negetive to starter motors negetive post. Hot from solonoid to positive terminal for starter motor. And two wires one on each side of the switch from solonoid to the ignition switch. Typically you need an ignition switch that has off/on/run. Search for Wiring diagram for your motor to find one. here is a diagram for my engine. <a href=" http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://i222.photobucket.com/albums/dd146/HighTrim/Wiring1958-61_35-40hpwithoutgenerat.jpg&imgrefurl=http://forums.iboats.com/showthread.php%3Ft%3D247773&usg=__IkAs1yCIV6UYtQ7zwb_kg-3IoaE=&h=558&w=800&sz=140&hl=en&start=2&um=1&tbnid=kQq7NeQS5V4qcM:&tbnh=100&tbnw=143&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dwiring%2Bdiagram%2Bevinrude%2Blark%26hl%3Den%26rls%3Dcom.microsoft:en-us:IE-SearchBox%26um%3D1">Diagram for Lark IV</a>

your fule pump module and fuel filter need to be replaced. If the car doesn't turn over then its probably your starter or solonoid.

Why won't the key lock the hatch lock on my 1997 Jeep Cherokee?
More than likely it is either the solonoid (the motor that moves the latch, or the wiring to the solonoid. First remove the door panels till you can get to the solonoid, then use a multimeter to test the voltage on the solonoid wiring. If the voltage is good, replace the solonoid, if there is no voltage, you might have a broken wire or short in the wiring in that area. (I am about to replace a solonoid on my 97 Laredo, back passenger door.) Hope this helps. Buy the "Haynes Repair Manual" for the Jeep. Shows you how to completely tear apart your Jeep!
