Okay I got a tricky one for you guys! I've talked with a lot of mechanics and can't find a resolution... yet! I have a 1998 Camaro 3.8L Engine w/ Manual Trans I have previously added a Magnaflow Exhaust System, SLP Cold Air Induction and SLP Air-Temperature Module, car was running perfect! So I finally get my Pacesetter Headers in about a week ago, I take them to my main man hector to put them in, pick the car up everything runs good til I got home and shut the car off. Son of a ***** doesn't wanna start. So finally I get the car started about a half hour of trying it on and off. I take it back and he says it was a sensor behind the pully, he replaces that and still has the same problem. It starts about 1 out of 30 tries. Eventually my starter went bad because I was trying to start it up to much! So now im stuck with my beautiful Camaro outside of my house unable to start it to drive it anywhere. It use to start up if i would pump the gas a little bit, because ocasionally it would turn over now it does nothing even with a brand new starter. Sorry for the super long explanation but I probably missed a couple things, but I really need the help, because my only option right now is taking it to the dealer to get *** raped. Also the Check engine light is on, not sure on the exact code- When driving the ABS INOP light will come on and I've checked all my fuses and battery power.
HELP MY BABY! Mucho Gracias!

 

Have you tried push starting it?

 

Is the starter turning? If so, you might have a dead fuel pump

 

Get a fuel pressure test, as suggested above, fuel pump could be on the fritz. Have you tried adding some fuel system cleaner to a few tanks? Checked if your fuel filter is clogged?

 

the check engine light is on because of the crank sensor which is behind the pulley which has been replaced twice in the last 2 days. problem still persists even with new crank sensor. also the car does run perfect once i get it started and I've ran it for about 2 hours after I've got it started, still possible to be a bad fuel pump? Like I said earlier once I get it started it runs perfect.

 

The fuel will siphon itself out after you get it started to make sure that it doesn't just randomly die while you're driving when the fuel pump goes out (kinda like when you suck water through a hose).

Just get it pressure tested just in case. My fuel pump never set an SES light when it went out... It just went out and that was it lol

 

Have you tried push starting it? Do the teeth on the flywheel look okay? Does the security light blink rapidly at you?

 

Did you ever figure out the problem with your Camaro? Mine has the same problem.
