Re: help with a 93 wagon
most likely could be the timing belt is broken. Does it sound like the starter is cranking a lot faster than it should sound?

Re: help with a 93 wagon
I was having similar issues lately (starter sounded like it was going bad, no-start conditions) that were quickly solved when the cam sensor was replaced. Definitely check the state of your timing belt though.

Re: help with a 93 wagon
timing belt is good. starter sounds normal not fast like a broken belt thinking it might have jumper a tooth maybe.
Re: help with a 93 wagon
Check the codes before doing much of anything else. That should pin point a cam or crank sensor issue.

Re: help with a 93 wagon
I'm having the same issue with mine, cranks slowly like it's fighting itself. Happened out of nowhere, parked it one night it's ran great, next morning, nothing. I thought for sure the belt skipped.
I pulled the timing cover, but everything lines up perfectly, tensioner's good, etc. New belt last year. Guess I need to dig out my spare cam & crank sensors, God knows where I buried them... I pulled the battery before I remembered to read the codes.
