I have a 93 850glt and it suddenly decided not to start. Engine cranks fine, I cleaned and regapped plugs, put I timing light on #1 cyl. wire and it is getting power. I cleaned the air intake, charged up the battery and checked the fuses. Wont start.I even removed and cleaned the auxillary drive and all the pulleys. Whats next Mike

I agree with the previous post, having done what you did, it seems like a fuel problem. Fuel senders have also been known to fail. While your at it, check for fault codes.

fuel pump relay is a commonm problem that sounds like what you are having. there is also a fuel system relay, but the culprit is most likely the fuel pump relay, common failure. do a search on the topic.
