soi found a guy selling a 92 camaro with a 305 and its manual, guy says it will turn over but wont start. what are the possible reasons it wont start ?

 

No spark and/or no fuel.

 

Bad fuel pump or split rubber connection in the tank is a good possibility, I just went through that with my 91. Has the car been sitting idle for a while?

 

cehck the fire if it has no fire pull the cap and there is a little black thing with prongs on it i forgot the name of it but hat was my problem with my 1986.

 

the little black thing with prongs is an ignition module. could also be the ignition coil, or the pickup coil. Sick

 

All these things can be the problem. Best place to start iswith ignition, its easiest to check. Just hook up a timing light (if you have one) to the #1 wire& turn it over. If the light flashes you have spark. If you don't have a timing light, there's the ole stick a screw driver in the plug wire, hold it close to the plug while someone else turns over the motor, if a spark jumps from the screw driver to the plug, you have ignition. Just be real careful doing itthat way, if you get tagged by the spark it will make you jump & probably hit your head on the hood Not good

If you have fire then ithas to be eitherfuel starvation, timing, a broken timing chain, no compression or last but not least a blown up motor. I can't help much with that one but the other posts give you a place to start trouble shooting.

Good luck & let us know how it works out.
