my 88 gt has been idling low lately, then catches up. Now the engine won't start. The engine cranks but won't fire, I checked the inertia switch, it's seated. I can't hear the fuel pump when I turn the ignition to acc. I need some help, anyone run into this before?

i would recheck the fuel pump first if you cant hear it running, maybe try a new rotor button, it could be burnt up
