My daughters 93 Galant ES 2.0L has 114'000 miles on it. The tranny was rebuilt, new rack & pinion, new Transmission computer, new fuel filter, New cheap Walmart battery!, new belts, new alternator, & new timing Belt.
Now the problem; Some days the car would start right up, Some days not at all. Eventually it would not start at all. The engine would crank but just would not start.
I had a Mechanic check it out and he told me the Distributer was bad. So I replaced the distributer and installed a new rotor. Charged the battery up and it started right up. So far so good. The next morning I drove her car to work and it ran just fine. 6:00pm that night the car would not start. It would turn over but it would not start, I checked all the electrical connections, everthing seemed ok. So I got a ride home, loaded my tools in my truck and got back to work at about 9:00pm. By then the batttery was run down from trying to start it earlier, so I put some jumper cables on it and guess what, it started right up. and I drove it home. Once I got it in the driveway at home I shut it off and it started right up again. What should I check next? Could it just be a bad battery?
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

 

Try checking if the fuel is reaching the enigne and if not check the fuel pump.

 

also try putting new battery terminals on there i had the same problem a while ago and it was the battery terminals
