Well Men, I think I may have solved the intermittent no start $ you aint gonna believ

OK...I had the hood up on two of my 88's last night and loe and behold, I noticed that just around the main fuse block there were two connectors that were not connected, they are both white. One of the is a two prong and the other is a square six prong. I've looked under the hood for the past 2 years and never noticed,
DUUHHH...hasn't done it yet today. If I drive it for a week and she don't "no start" again, perhaps it is solved. What do those two connections go to...one of em is my power steering cause it is softer now....

LOL, you were just teasing us all this time, huh? I had to go look- both of mine are disconnected too (removed power steering & a/c long time ago). The other one? Is it a 6-pin plug? I have no idea- auto tranny wiring connector, a/c, whatever it is, it 'aint on my car...Hope that fixes ya...

The 2 wire and 6 wire plugs sound like P/S plugs. Nothing to do with startup, at all.

I had a problem with hot start on my turbo 2, and found out that the wires going to the fuse box on the drivers fender where all messed up, and that the connection from the altenator where all rusted and dirty, so when the car was cold i guess the battery had enough juice to turn it on, but after driving it was hard to start. anyways this fixed my problem.

Peace

Well guys, I was just hoping since it didn't act up today...but it did tonight....so I'm back to square one...I think its leaky injectors. Short of taking them off and working on them, what can I do to not have the fuel system under so much pressure after I shut her off? I'm thinking if there is no pressure they won't leak.
Maybe its just haunted...we'll figure it out sooner or later
but the two things unplugged were not it, but my PS is sssssmmmmooooooth and easy. Maybe its just haunted...
