∙ 17y agoWhy my Cadillac 1986 wont start
I have an 1986 550L and the best way to get it started is to push start it.
your fuel pump could be bad if it runs for a few seconds .
out of gas or other fluids?? either that or fuel pump.
ok i have a 1986 jeep cherokee it wont start from the key in side it turns over but dosent fire up an its got (gas an fire) it will start if you pull start it an it has a carb
two plugwires were off when car started and ran for 15 seconds
It would be either the Engine or the Battery.
tps or idle speed motor
Sounds like the alternator and eventually it wont start back up for you
It sounds like a fuel delivery problem. Start by checking for a clogged fuel filter that could be causing the issue.
I have a Toyota with the 22r engine and it will start when its cold but it when it gets worm it wont start with out help
Probably ignition switch gone bad or the key cylinder itself is bad. Good Luck!!!
