I bought an xis 1984 a few months ago and had it all flushed and cleaned. I got it started today and it ran for about 30 minutes just fine. I noticed none of the guages were working tho, but the car ran fine. Idled just great. 30 minutes in, the engine started acting up, like it was losing fuel. I shut it off and waited about five minutes. Its started up just fine and then started acting up again. I shut it off and now it won't start at all. It will crank, but no started. I hear the fuel pump cycle when I turn the key on without starting. What could be the likely suspect here? It has been starting fine, but now this. Last week it started and ran just fine and did the same thing. I waited a night and it wouldn't start the next day even. Trickled charged the battery and today got it to start and run for 30 minutes. No unusual smoke, ran smooth, even with throttling it....any help would be amazing. Thanks!!
