question bubble

I have a 1979 Camaro . I was driving yesterday and hit a bump. My car instantly died and now will not restart?

By Yahoo:melissa at Yahoo!Answers.com

I had just stopped and filled the tank before this. I bought this car 3 weeks ago. it had been sitting for 5 years. It has a Chevy 350 big block motor and it is an automatic. Also is there anyway to cause this to happen intentionally? My soon to be ex husband had just... Read More

  • 12 volt power wire going to driver side of distributor might have bumped loose, or a fuse might have bumped loose Read More
  • get someone to check the cap and rotor. the rotor is probably broken or a wire is off.
  • Does the engine turn over but just not fire up? if so something simply came loose. It is possible he did not tighten up the distributor if he was doing points etc as part of the tune up and it came off when you hit the bump. A little more info on what the car will... Read More

Why should I also consider these?

Competitors for the 2010 Chevrolet Camaro fall in to several categories dictated by which Camaro you're considering.

The most obvious competitors are the Camaro's traditional nemeses: the 2010 Ford Mustang and 2009 Dodge Challenger.

We prefer the base Camaro to the base V-6 Mustang or Challenger because the Chevy's engine/transmissions are flat-out better.

However, the newest Mustang GT is plenty refined and stands out as a great value with a V-8.

The Mustang Shelby GT500 manages to eclipse even the Camaro SS's formidable punch, with 540 horses.

The Challenger R/T and SRT8 provide two different levels of V-8 power packaged around a larger five-passenger interior.

If you're looking at other coupes with V-6 engines and automatic transmissions, the Toyota Solara could be your car if you prefer a duller drive with less iconic style.

Sporty coupes like the 2009 Nissan 370Z and 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe might be up your alley if you're considering a Camaro with a V-6 and a six-speed manual.

The Camaro is unabashedly American in its styling, but the refinement of its powertrain and suspension are easily the match for these imports.

 
2010 Ford Mustang
Nostalgia is still a big part of the appeal, but the 2010 Ford Mustang is now every bit a modern, refined sport coupe.
 
2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe
For $22,000, the 2010 Hyundai Genesis Coupe 2.0t represents a heck of a performance value.
 
2009 Dodge Challenger
Let the burnouts begin! The Ford Mustang finally has another domestic competitor.
 
2009 Nissan 370Z
The Nissan Z has never occupied the top spot in the performance world—and it doesn't now—but it's still a great performance car that starts just under $30,000.
