RE: [T3] won't start



We need some more specifics.  Does the starter work normally or does it not
work also?  How long has the car been sitting since it's last start-up?

Water in the gas tank will cause starting problems.  Gas dryer is readily
available at any auto parts store.  I've found STP to work just fine.  Do
you have a Haynes or Bentley shop manual?  You NEED to get one if you plan
on doing your own work as it's a required tool!  They will answer many
questions for you.
