My '84 Has Issues :(
Hi guys......need your assistance please:
My '84 C4 crapped out yesterday.......check engine came on and it lost all compression and died. It started back up but didn't stay running. The spark plugs were bad so all have been replaced, along with new wires. Also replaced was the coil, cap and rotor (components inside were cracked/burnt) and the fuel filter. Injectors seem ok. Car still starts up but dies out after a few seconds.
Help, has anyone had this issue?? Thank you so much!!!!!

Put a fuel pressure gauge on it...see what your pressure is. Spec is 9-13, but what ever number you see, it shouldn't drop or change under any circumstance. Report back.
