Hahahahahaaaaa! much obliged sir, much obliged!
I hear this song EVERYY Friday night on karaoke where I work lol (at least 5-10 times in one night), I'm usually sick of it by now, but this is the original and its startin the day nice Good ol' buck owens maybe ill go n eat at the buck owens palace now this weekend lol. streets of bako...

 

yeah, going to change the oil today before work! that's a must, ive put off an oil change for a while now because I leak it out quite often and I was wanting to stop the leak first then put fresh oil.

 

yeeeep ive needed a good voltmeter for quite some time now.
points taken thanks! I want to try and push start it!! but scared I wont be able to get it back up the hill I live on.. :/

 

My car did the whole start start start slow thing starting a week ago. I had two things wrong. Cat clogged up and my newer cheap battery dropped a cell. Tried buddies battery and its a constant start now. But it was 650 cca where my battery was 450 cca. Hope this helps

 

well, I charged my batter at autozone and they told me it was a good battery. I don't know about my cats clogging up suddenly though, ill add that to my list, give em a good tap or three. Thanks

 

Yesterday I changed the oil and oil filter ( im quite sure I got some water in the old oil ) and charged the battery and put 2 gallons of gas in and still nothing. so im thinking it must be electrical as was suggested and as I originally thought. I don't have a volt meter though >.<
any tips on checking the distributor and maybe a easy process of elimination?
my money is on distributor fouling up at this point.
I checked one plug and it had spark, but it sure did FEEL weak really didn't jolt me too much like others have, still need to check the others, how would I know if the timing is correct? or how would I know the distributor is working correctly?

also been trying starting fluid here and there and it now has no change in cranking what so ever.

 

well, problem solved.
I had the cables from distributor to the plugs backwards. I forgot to ask which rotor was which... so the front rotor is number 1 or 2? lol
thank you guys for your help and input!!!

also, now I hear a strange whistling that wasn't there before.. it sounds like I have a turbo on it! its pretty loud and goes with engine speed. any thought of what that could be??

 

I had this problem years ago...there is a little box by the headlights I believe. I don't remember if its black or brown but when that thing gets wet it makes a whistling sound...and mine went with engine revs too..I swapped it out with another I had on hand but you might be able to dry it out...oscilator box...that's what it was called...search for it and something like a billion threads should pop up..
