Cadillac Catera Help

[marvelrunner]

My dads Caddy just wont start. It just pretty much stoped in the middle of the road when he was taking my sister to school. Its a V6 3liter. If anyone can help please feel free to respond and if anyone knows of any good Cadillac message boards that can help please post. Thanks

Try taking the badge off the front of the car and replacing it with something else... like chevy.. or even honda/toyota

Sounds like the car is just about to start but then doesn't. How old is the battery? You might just try jumping. It doesn't sound like the battery is too weak but I've had the same problem in an old merc that sounded fine but a jump got it going. Otherwise it could be a fuel delivery problem. You might try pulling the plugs to see how they look and then maybe replace the fuel filter.

How did it run prior to this? Anything weird at all?

yeah sounds like a fuel problem. Get a fuel pressure gage and see if you are getting any fuel pressure
