    My 1990 Deville is doing the same thing, it died on me like it was out of gas and wont start back up. i have changed ignition module, coil, distr. cap, rotor, ignition switch and checked all fuses. It still isnt getting spark, however it is getting power to the coil. I turned the key on and tested the plug to the coil, and it is getting power. It has to be something electrical, does anyone know what else to check??? i am stumped!

It may be the fuel pump, if its not getting gas it won't start. If not that it could be electrical

How do you know you dont have spark? Are you using a spark tester? Try holding a spark plug wire about a 1/4" away from a good grounded bolt or screw with a pair of rubber handled pliers, while somebody cranks the engine, watch and listen for the spark to jump the gap. I think you have spark, but maybe the electronic fuel pump in side the fuel tank crapped the bed.

94 cadillac deville dies when i slow down

I have seen this problem before and the cause could be TCC Staying in Lock-up or an Electrical Issue within the Engine itself or a Fuel Delivery Issue.

If the Transmission TCC is the issue, try driving at slower speeds (below 30 and come to a stop, does it Shut off then? Increase Speed by 10 and try again. Does it react differently once you go above 42-45 MPH?

95 sedan deville wont start and says fuel low with gas in tank

I'd start by tracing the fuel supply and return lines from the gas tank to the engine compartment. Make sure that they are free of kinks or other damage.

Next, check the fuse box and make sure there is power to the fuel pump. Trace the electrical connections leaving the fuel tank and make sure they weren't torn or otherwise damaged by the tire tread.

Hope this helps and good luck!
