I just recently joined the ranks of GN owner and was shocked how fast and how well these cars handle!

Anyway I recently had a new turbo installed(the bearing were seized in the factory unit) and been driving it without issue but today after having it out running errands with the wife it wouldnt start. We were stuck in the Target parking lot for two hours before AAA came. My wife is 6 months pregnant and was not too happy LOL...

The battery is fine and the starter motor sounds real strong lots of crank still happening. It feels as though it is not getting fuel.

Last time I filled up I added a octane booster/fuel system cleaner is it possible that loosened up some grime and clogged my filter?

The car has 116000 it is real clean so I do not suspect it was abused. It does have upgraded injectors but not sure what?

Any thoughts on what the problem could be?

Thanks
 
Wecome to the wonderful world of Turbo Buicks. :tongue:

First you should check fuel pressure and spark but I don't like the way you said lots of cranking still happening. That sounds allot like the timing chain.

Do a hill billy compression test. Pull #1 plug. Put your finger over the hole and crank the motor over a couple times. If your finger gets blown off, thats a good sign. If not you have problem.
 
Holistic auto repair

Im guessing module .change the coil and module at the same time.
 
check any of youre cables arent shorting out! move your pos. cable back and forth and see if that helps!
