What does it mean when the 2000 Malibu turns over but won't fire?

[Edit]

Answer

This can be caused by a number of things. Your starter could be bad, you could have something in your gas tank, you may need to replace your spark plugs... the list goes on and on. You should probably take it to a trusted mechanic, redneck, cajun, or (as a last resort) the dealership.

Answer

The ignition module could also go bad. If it goes bad put the key in the on position without trying to turn it over. Leave it in for 15 mins. take the key out and start it. Sounds simple but it worked for me. You can normally tell if this is the problem if the theft light stays on. Damn GM's

Answer
