Hello, I need some advice...my 97 v6 starts then shuts off within 5 seconds. Any suggestions? When I try to restart it just turns without firing. After it rests for 5 mins it will start then shut off again within 5 seconds.
either that or it might be the ignition controller shorting or something. it's simple to change and priced around 100 bucks. the way to test is to but a 5 dollar spark tester and see if it stops sparking before the engine dies. if it doesn't, check that you are getting fuel. Change the fuel filter anyways.
