it could be your fuel pump , even if the pump kicks in, it has to pump approx 40 pounds of pressure to the fuel rail

Splice into the power wire ( red ). and the speaker wires.

harmonic balancers by design have a rubber insertion between the hub and the pulley that rubber breaks and relies soley on friction to drive the pulley it the tdc mark and the piston position are not correct , that would indicate that the harmonic balancer needs replacing however when replacing the belts always go of the timing marks on the pulleys on the crank and cam shafts and not off the balancer

not sure if this link will help you out... Torque spec for 1993 stealth RT front crankshaft pulley bolt Google Search

Always check for spark and fuel wgrn trying to diagnose a no-start. Check for fuel pressure with a fuel pressure gauge. Look up the recommended fuel pressure for your vehicle. If It's in range then fuel filter probably good. Check for spark by unhooking a wire at spark plug and connecting it to a spark tester and have someone try to start while you watch for spark.

It sounds as though your connection is not grounded. The starter take a lot of juice from the battery and your connection has to be solid. Check and make sure it is free of debris and make certain that all connections are secure. There should be no wiggling in wires. Make sure also. That you don’t have a starter ”fuse”. Some cars have a fuse and a relay. If you need further help, I’m available over the phone at https://www.6ya.com/expert/sam_2aa3897a693549cc

U definitely do have a thermal issue with the traits you have described. The diagnosis you got is spot on. But shop around for the part since most places will not allow the return of electronic parts.

at this point you are advised to walk away from this car check engine means engine or transmission faults and until you get the fault codes read you may not be able to get the car ready for inspection IT hasn't run for 11 years --definitely not a good deal unless he wants to pay you to take it away

if it has a cable , replace the inner cable if your GPS is not calibrated it could be out as well

Did you check fuel pump electrical circuit ? Look at a wiring diagram to see what all is involved in making the fuel pump work. No , the knock sensor can't cause this ! Do you know how to do automotive electrical circuit testing using a DVOM - digital volt ohm meter ? How to read an use a wiring diagram to pin point areas for testing in a electrical circuit ! What do you think makes that fuel pump work ? AIR !!!! Looking at a wiring diagram I see a fuel pump relay that gets B+ voltage from the engine control relay. The engine computer energizes both, relays .There is a fuel pump resistor inline before the fuel pump.

Hey Anon, I just finished replacing the intermittent (wiper motor pulse board) control on my vehicle.. it was doing exactly as you describe.. it wasn't hard.. just time consuming..
