If by nothing you mean it acks as though there is no battery in the car try this it worked on my (1990 DEVILLE ). Put the car in park ,Attach a remote starter switch to the starter,remove the air cleaner,turn the key to the on position, put approx one teaspoon of gas in the intake manifoil throat and try to start the engin using the remote starter. If the car starts the problem is somewhere in the pass key decoder circuit which includes the starter enable relay ,the fuel pump relay,key warning ,seat belt warning ETC. Your car has on onboard diagnostic computer which will give basic problem codes you can find out what the codes mean in a Haynes Repair Manual for your car. I repaired my car by bypassing the starter enable relay and the car works fine (but if the battery is disconnected for any reason I must charge the engine with a teaspoon of gas to restart the car GOOD LUCK a repair is $600+

It's a very vague problem you have. 1. Check compression on all cylinders. 2. Check spark on all plugs. 3. Check fuel/mix on all cylinders. 4. Check spark timing. 5. I don't know if the 84 has the high tech stuff but if it does then there are numerous electronic situations that start with the computer, ignition controls, security controls if it has it and so on with that. Sorry I couldn't provide a quick cure all,

How many quarts of oil does a 1993 Cadillac Sedan De Ville hold?

Park the vehicle on a level surface. Drain the oil and change the filter. Pour in 4.5 quarts of the correct weight oil and start the engine. Let it run for 1 minute and then shut down. Wait 30 minutes and check the oil level. Add enough oil to reach the full mark on the dip stick. Do not overfill. You now know the capacity.

Its a problem with your traction control. It may be just the switch in the glove compartment. If traction control is turned "OFF" the car will only start in 2nd gear.
