Isn't this a classic symptom of a failed crank position or engine speed
sensor?
The engine speed sensor symptom is lack of any movement (like a slight
bounce) of the tach while cranking.

That's the sound my V8 makes when I crank the starter and it never
'catches'.  (sounds asthmatic!)

1990, 178k on the clock, timing belt due in 2k (was done at 120k).  I
started it, moved it to a different spot on my driveway and parked it.
 8hrs later, I go to start it and it won't fire up.  <scratching head>

I have not tried to crank it for xxSeconds to pull the codes yet - not
sure what this might turn up, but will check it at lunch time.

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

- Jeremy
