Dan,

I hate to say it but your symptoms sound a lot like mine. My car is fixed
(hopefully for good now) and I had several things go bad that had to be
tracked down. I replaced:

Ignition switch
Throttle switches
O2 sensor
O2 computer
Battery & ground cables
Battery
Starter
Crankcase Breather hose
Fuel Pump
Ignition distributor

I cant' place my finger on any one thing that was the sole problem, but I
thought the list might help you think of something on yours. Oh, and when I
say I had a starting problem, my starter was having trouble turning the
motor at all.

Good Luck -- --Craig Williams

> when you think about what could be wrong, assume that everythnig is hooked
up correctly, because it is, the fuel pump is working, the 5th injector is
working, everything is working.  The car just has progressively gotten
worse.  About a month ago it started to fail to start.  Now it refuses to
start...sometimes i can get a sputter, but thats only after i trick around
witht he ignition switch.  Could my ignition switch be bad?  What would
cause a progressive deterioration of performance and the failure to start?
The tach jumping is what im really concerned about.  Any ideas? anybody?
assume that everything is hooked up.

the parts listed per bentley for the other symptoms that manifest themselves
