Maybe someone can help me with this. My mother-in-law has an 89 Taurus wagon with a n/a 3.8. It has developed a problem of not wanting to start sometimes. It will turn over fine, but won't crank. Each time she has had it towed to a shop and when they get it, it starts right up. This has happened twice now. I wasn't sure if they had the ground wires on them like we have and was thinking that might be a possibility.
Of course the shop can't figure out what's wrong with it if it cranks and they want to charge her to do a diagnostic test, which might not show anything if it's a bad ground. I'd like to help her get it fixed without it costing and arm at the shop. Anyone run into this before with a n/a 3.8 or have any ideas?
Thanks!!!
