Fuel Delivery question
I have an 87' that at the turn of the key starts right up for only a second or two then turns off, even after I attempt to give it a lil gas. Can anyone help me figure out what I might have to replace or have checked out? The engine is good and only has 45k original miles.

A fuel pressure gauge is a must for these cars. It sounds like very little fuel pressure. Could be pump, strainer or filter or as you stated, there could be water in the tank.
