    What part of the Carolinas are you in? When was the last time the car was running as one would expect? Is this a project car?

    Check 12v battery voltage with key ON, but not started. Should be at least 12.1v, IIRC. These cars do funny things with a bad 12v battery. If that's OK, not much to be done without the codes.
