What is your question?
I'll start the car and after 10 minutes it'll shut off and when I go to restart it it won't turn over. I've replaced the fuel pump and filter before brand new. Now the car won't start doesn't turn over. I'm thinking it could be the cat because I have a exhaust leak but not sure. Maybe the distributor any suggestions
Yes it cranks buy doesn't start.
While it will not start, test for ignition spark from spark plug wire.. You'll need a helper to crank the engine for you... That'll narrow it down a BUNCH!
Do I use something metal inside the spark plug wire while touch a ground to see a spark?
That'll work! .. Don't actually 'touch' a ground ... Just hold the metal insert about 1/4 inch from a metal ground somewhere on the engine and while engine is cranking... Should see spark! .. # 2 Phillips screwdriver works well for the test.. Make sure the handle is in good shape so you don't get a jolt.. It really won't hurt you but you'll get a surprise. .. You will also know it's getting spark though!
