: '91 Corvette died this morning?

After filling up gas last night I drove home and parked the car in the garage like a normally do. For some reason this morning it just wouldn't start? It would try to turn over, but didn't? I was thinking bad gas, but bad gas will still start the car right? It would just run like crap correct? So I'm wondering if it could be something with the ignition system? Spark??? Really looking for possible answers here.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am a bit lost....did it turn over and not fire, or not turn over?

Of the sounds of it your plugs might be fouled up. Take some time and remove your plugs and see if they are all black. What kind of gas are you using? If you are using a lower octane, than your plugs are most likely the culprit. Good luck!

Yes, usually if the motor cranks over but it won't start you can bet that it is not getting any spark. Hope you find the problem quickly!

Check your ignition module, and your Coolant temp sensor while your at it...
