Starting my engine
Last night, after I got home from my graduation, my car rolled over and fired numerous times, but won't stay running. I had the same problem before, and ended up it was the selenoid. The starter is new last fall- used very little. Think the selenoid went out again? or something else?? wiring problem?? Just looking for ideas before I get under it today.

It fires up fine, but won't stay running- lacking power somewhere. When I keep the key forward- cranking- stays running. When I let it back to run position- it dies.

Re: Starting my engine (bbeck)
Did you re intall the starter just before this happened? I put in a new starter once and wired it wrong so it would only run when I engaged the ignition. Rewired it right and it ran fine.
